WARN Act Refresher
As an economic recession looms (or are we there already?), employers that are considering a reduction in force would do well to review their potential obligations under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act ("WARN"). Several of my partners in New York who contribute to the New York Employment Law Letter have written a primer on the WARN Act, available here. By the way, several states have "mini-WARN Acts" that apply to employers with fewer employees than those covered by the federal law. But Florida is not among them.
