Your WARN Act Rights
If you have been terminated, or laid off as part of a plant closing, mass layoff or facility shut-down as defined by the WARN Act:

You have the right to a written, 60 day notice prior to being terminated or laid off. WARN notice is intended to give employees time to look for another job or secure job re-training.

You have the right to recover up to 60 days of pay and benefits if you were not provided a written WARN notice.

You have the right to a written explanation for any shortened (that is, less than 60 days) notice of layoff or termination.

If you were laid off without notice, you may have a WARN Act case
