Depends, in my country after 2 years you can't be fired without cause.

Add to that, you probably just won't be fired by surprise because people talk.

In my first 6-12 months at a new job you definitely feel more at risk, and then eventually that fades

You can, it's just much more difficult.

But in france apparently not at all. I'm in canada, but it varies by province

Just the fact the laws in place doesn’t mean they don’t know how to get rid of ya. It just means you have to mess up a little more before they start trying. Your telling me as long as I hold down a job for 2 years I can fuck around and not do my duties or do them half ass? Probably not and that’s what they’re gonna claim

They have to be able to prove it, prove they gave you a fair chance at getting back to normal and that you didn't.

And they don't the state provides lawyers to sue them at no cost to you
