What is loud quitting?

Loud quitting is a workplace trend where employees resign in a fit of rage or do things to “directly harm” their employer.

Examples of loud quitting include:

• Going out of one’s way to be unproductive during work hours
• Penning an extremely aggressive resignation letter to one’s boss
• Sharing sensitive company information or one’s resignation on social media

According to Gallup’s 2023 State of the Global Workplace Report, “loud quitters” include individuals who experienced a “severely broken” trust with their employer or were “woefully mismatched to a role, causing constant crises.”

Loud quitting is substantially different from quiet quitting, which involves only doing what is necessary to stay employed.

Am I entitled to severance pay if I quit my job?

In most cases, non-unionized employees in Canada don’t get a severance package if they voluntarily resign from their position.

Severance is designed to provide workers with financial support while they look for new job after being fired without cause or let go.

If you were forced to leave because of unwanted changes to the terms of your employment, you could have grounds for a constructive dismissal claim.

In this situation, the law would allow you to quit your job and pursue full severance pay.
