Working Solutions NYC, a Top New York City Severance and Employment Law Firm, Announces Interview on Employee Rights in a Layoff

    NEW YORK, NY, November 23, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Working Solutions NYC, a team of employment attorneys working on severance, FMLA, and unpaid wages issues in New York and New Jersey at https://www.workingsolutionsnyc.com/, is proud to announce an informative interview on the rights employees may have during layoffs.

"With economic turbulence, many employees are fearing layoffs and many employers are tempted to unscrupulously use layoffs in illegal ways," explained Chris Q. Davis, managing partner at the law firm. "My interview on CBS news explains some of the basics such as notification requirements during a mass layoff, and the illegality of discrimination due to race, sex, gender, and other factors under the guise of a layoff."

Persons who would like to read the interview can read it at https://www.cbsnews.com/news/unemployment-insurance-severance-pay-layoffs-worker-rights/. Here's an important, edited excerpt: "If a job loss is a result of an entire facility closing — for example, if a company shuts down a manufacturing plant, resulting in widespread layoffs — the company must provide at least 60 days' notice under The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act." Persons who want to learn more about New York's law can visit https://dol.ny.gov/worker-adjustment-and-retraining-notification-warn. WARN requires covered businesses to provide early warnings of closures and layoffs to all affected employees, employee representatives, the Department of Labor, and Local Workforce Development Boards.
