I don’t know where you all work. But over here it is standard even for ‘unqualified’ work to have at least 1 month notice. For both sides. This gives employers and employees some time to find something new.
I’m speaking for the United States, minus Montana (if I recall correctly).
Neither employers nor employees are required to give notice. However, it is standard practice that employers do not give notice and employees do (usually two weeks).
When I worked at a callcenter they offered a new contract trading an agreement to give 2 weeks notice for a better paid vacation plan, with the consequence of failing to give notice being that the any unpaid pay periods would be paid at the minimum legal wage (which is of course a very pitiful wage I might add)
I have never heard of notice being in a contract. I’m sure it’s a thing, but it’s very uncommon.

Well, that just looks like an unfair system. Both sides need the same mandatory notice.
Oh, the vast majority of us agree with you. Yet here we are.
