Nice to live in a country that has some labour protections.
Isn’t this kind of thing usually just to make the forced redundancy round a bit easier?
I would argue it’s better than nothing.
Where I live you don’t even get redundancy pay unless your employer is genuinely nice.
Ah, I’m in the UK so I’m not 100% on Irish law, but European countries typically have legal severance requirements, so the fear of not getting severance pay should not exist in this scenario
Labor protections are next to non-existent in the US. You could get a glowing performance review one day and then be laid off the next with zero fault, zero warning and zero severance.
Dang! That puts someone a heck of a lot closer to full retirement.
