WH to Contractors: Hold off on Layoff Warnings
Contractors told to hold off on layoff warnings due to fiscal cliff spending cuts - Sep. 28, 2012
The White House on Friday told government contractors worried about
fiscal cliff spending cuts to hold off on warning employees about
possible layoffs.
The government said it would cover legal costs if contractors are
forced to slash their payrolls because of the looming $109 billion in automatic cuts next year and are alleged to have violated the WARN Act.
The federal WARN Act requires businesses with more than 100
employees to notify workers at least 60 days in advance of a mass layoff
or plant closing. Some states require more notice.
