| There are a bunch of gotchas on the WARN act, and companies in America are really good at fudging around to avoid having to make notifications. > The WARN Act is not activated when a covered employer: > * closes a temporary facility or completes a temporary project, and the employees working in the facility or temporary project were hired with the clear understanding that their employment would end with the closing of the work facility or the completion of the project; or > * closes a facility or operating unit because of a strike or a worker lock-out, and the closing is not intended to evade the purposes of the WARN Act. > * If a plant closing or a mass layoff results in fewer than 50 workers losing their jobs at a single employment site; > * If 50 to 499 workers lose their jobs and that number is less than 33 percent of the employer's total, active workforce at a single employment site; > * If a layoff is for 6 months or less; or > * If work hours are not reduced 50 percent in each month of any 6-month period |
just use a single '>' or italics like everyone else does.
