Mechanisms¶

- Its strength is that it stops boom-bust hiring: by making capacity reluctant to reverse, it preserves trained people and institutional knowledge, and it spares the organization the morale and severance costs of whipsawing headcount on demand that turns out to be transient.
This sourceModels workforce adjustment as costly and therefore smooths hiring and layoffs rather than tracking every short-term fluctuation in demand.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
