The WARN Act is not severance! It requires that the company notify employees 60 days in advance of a mass layoff. They don't have to specifically notify the individuals being laid off.

There is no requirement for severance in California!

Most companies forgo notification and pay out two months of pay. So it becomes a defacto severance. Do you know any company that actually gave notice and kept the employees on for two months?
