I don't get it. If you get a notice, they should. We have labour laws requiring both the company and you to give notice, 3 months. That's for anyone that hires someone, but exempt for what's called a "temporary hire", like interns and such. If you have a temporary hire for more than one year it's automatically considered a "permanent hire". It means that whenever a company uses consultants or practice workers the risk goes both ways, and most normal workers get economic security. (Perhaps it only works well because other labour laws though, such as rights to be sick, have kids, etc)

Labour laws should be beneficial for workers, and if they aren't, the giant hyper capitalist megacorps you foster with that approach aren't worth any protection at all since they are a burden on the planet and society, not a benefit.

You don't typically get a notice.

What you just described is a system that mistreats your workers. Those temporary hires, if they lose their jobs, they can't put food on the table. But if the company loses a temporary worker, it's not going to be troubled, they're just going to go hire another person.

That all being said, if you're working under contract and your company has robust protections for retaliation by employers, some of the risk of telling them in advance goes away. That's great, but there's still some remaining risk. Many bosses will be vengeful, bitter, and they may sabotage your work however they can for the last few weeks or months. And you won't be able to stop them, because you're leaving, so even if you filed an internal complaint, it wouldn't go anywhere.
