One part of my logic is that I believe all employees should be given around 3 months or more of severance for layoffs.

Just because that isn’t common practice doesn’t mean I don’t think something like 9 weeks isn’t unacceptably short.

It’s nearly impossible to get another job and receive your first paycheck within 9 weeks.

I think it’s just that little bit extra pathetic when it’s a large and successful company with revenue in the billions that can’t even find the money to round up severance to an even number of weeks.

And I am struggling to think of how applying the WARN Act to all layoff situations wouldn’t be a net benefit to most employees.
