We've all heard of "quiet quitting," where employees do the bare minimum at work. But what happens when the silence comes from the employer instead? A LinkedIn survey of more than 200,000 professionals found that 48% have witnessed a colleague being "quietly fired". Slowly pushed out through exclusion, lack of support, or missed opportunities rather than a formal dismissal. It's a workplace trend that's sparking conversations about leadership, company culture and employee well-being. We are in conversation with HR expert, Lerato Shawane as we unpack what quiet firing looks like, why it happens, and what both employers and employees can do to address it.
