WARN Act Notices – Second Quarter of 2023
The federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act requires employers in the United States with 100 or more full time employees to provide 60-day notice in advance of mass layoffs or plant closings. The WARN Act applies to full-time workers and provides workers with time to prepare for the transition between the jobs they currently hold and new jobs.
States such as California, New York and others maintain their own state level WARN Acts, requiring additional employer obligations, which you can read more about at our WARN act page.
