Employee's new fear: Silent Dismissal
Modern work balance brings new problems

While silent resignation has been among the popular topics in the business world in recent years, the term 'silent dismissal' has been added to these topics. Silent dismissal is defined as the manager ignoring the employee in the workplace to resign and making minimal effort to retain him. It can also be called the equivalent of silent resignation on the manager's side.

What to do in case of silent dismissal

It's important to talk to the manager, explain the expectations, and find out what he or she thinks before you think "I'm being subjected to silent layoffs". Sometimes employees misjudge themselves, fail to see their shortcomings, and sometimes managers do not fully understand the capacities of employees. In order to eliminate these misunderstandings, it is necessary to talk in detail, to understand the career of the employee and to plan it in accordance with his expectations.

If such conversations no longer work, if the employee is not getting feedback, is not appreciated, if their salary is unfairly low, if their desire to communicate with their manager is not met, if they are not invited for new opportunities and are ignored, I would say they are subject to silent layoffs.
