(10/14) Forget ‘Quiet Quitting’ – It’s ‘Quiet Firing’ You Need to Worry About

By Joanne Kaldy / October 14, 2022

You’ve heard about quiet quitting, but are you or your managers quiet firing? This is actually a common practice where organizations fail to give staff constructive feedback and/or ignore or dismiss their input and concerns.

If you want to attract and keep good workers, avoid quiet firing by:

  • Not setting goals and expectations that are unrealistic or impossible to reach.
  • Failing to give workers the tools, training, and resources to do their jobs well.
  • Only giving feedback with there is a problem or a concerns and/or not having regular performance evaluations.
  • Not dismissing people’s suggestions about issues in the workplace or better ways to do things.
  • Conducting employee surveys but not doing anything with the results.
  • Not seeking employees’ insights on what’s working and what’s not.

While you may not be able to identify employees’ departures as the result of quiet firing, it is important to remember that workers want feedback, communication, and transparency. They want to feel valued and like their contributions make a difference. Engage your employees more, do more listening. See if this doesn’t have an impact on staffing numbers.
