How relevant and advantageous is it for an organization to see off its employees in a respectable manner?
Most of us just leave without being acknowledged for our contributions. Some are lucky to get a seeing off party or mail messages. Maybe we were quite senior in position or maybe we were some of management's favorite.
Irrespective of the status or contribution, one should get an acknowledgment of their services to the organizations - however small that period of working was. That is not to make that person feel good, but also for the others who are not leaving. The latter would feel safe and secure in a way which could be due to the expectations that one has for a situation when he himself would be leaving.
From management's perspective this could be a cost - a cost in terms of money as well as a cost in terms of all of other employees coming to know (clearly) that a person (one more person?) is leaving the organization.
What should be the management's view on this? And, should this view change according to industry types (... e.g. BPOs which are always hiring and firing vs education which is more stable) and / or size of the organization?
Any views??
