>Pretty much all of them except a few European nations.

Where on earth did you get that idea?

There are no affluent western nation besides the United States with "At Will" employment except perhaps Israel (I was unable to confirm).



Israel isn't "at will"...


Thanks. I saw that mentioned on Quora but there was no citation provided.


The UK effectively has at will employment for the first two years. (But with Equality Act protections for people with protected characteristics: you can't fire someone because of their gender, for example).


It's one week up to 2 years.

Not great, but "at will" means 0 notice.
