"I don’t think they’re required to follow through once they’re gone... is that right?"

There really isn't anything the employer can do once the employee is gone.

You were saying ...

There really isn't anything the employer can do once the employee is gone.

And that sounds like a perfect line for an employer to use...

Employer talking to employee: "You know there really isn't anything we can do if you leave..."

And thus... "problem solved"... :-)
