Why people never hesitate for Resignation but are afraid of Layoffs?
Let’s understand this, so basically both the terms are way too different from each other and in most cases both can be good in certain cases!
Well in the industry this both words have very powerful meanings as they carry away someone’s most precious things, time and many more, but as the saying is there “Happiness can be found in the darkest hour”, this mindset should be there in everyone’s mind!
People clock in the resignation for various reasons and this could vary from person to person as some put in because they feel too much stressed while some want to upgrade their skills and furthermore not getting adequate pay according to the skills!
But while putting the resignation on table you are happy as you have got the backup for another job out there in the industry, well this isn’t the case with Layoffs!
Layoffs can be more devastating than expected as person doesn’t know that he is going to be fired in the coming days, weeks or months and in most cases no prior notice is given and person is fired within 10-15 days!
Just imagine you went home after completing your pending work, enjoyed weekend and on Monday morning you fire up the E-Mail and see the first mail that You have been sacked and pack off things as soon as possible! What would be your reaction at that time? Well everyone reading this post has the answer to it!
If you are financially strong than you might not worry as you will find a new job soon but what about people who are the only bread and butter of the family? How much pressure/stress they might feel after getting such E-Mail as they need to pay Bills, EMI, Rents and what not!
Layoffs can only be good in cases where company is in loss and you have signed a contract with the company to not leave for X months/years. Most MNC companies conducts mass Layoffs where plethora of people lost their jobs and companies lost Fruitful Talents because of it!
Layoffs are also not bad in some cases but it should be done only when no option is left with, as after conducting the layoff you are playing with someone’s future so please be careful with it!
If companies plan to layoff then just give the fired employees enough time to find a new position in the industry so that they don’t fell stressed out thinking I need to pay all my pending Bills, EMI, Rent, How will I manage it, etc……
Just give a thought on it!
