| 51. Many HR consultants will tell you for line workers to notify on Thursday... |

.. with their last day being the next day.
Any longer and you end up with bitter people sabotaging systems and relationships with customers and suppliers. Any shorter, and there's not enough time for the shock to wear off and resentment to subside somewhat.
For supervisors and the like, Tuesday with last day Friday of the same week.
For "management", they'll often recommend 2 weeks.
The psychology behind it has to do with a process similar to grieving. After the "denial" but before the "anger" seems to be the spot they're aiming for.
