In California, you can submit notice of a layoff by email or snail mail to the WARN Act Coordinator at the state Employment Development Division.
The Executive Order does not suspend the California WARN Act in its entirety, nor does it suspend the law for all covered employers. The Executive Order only suspends the California WARN Act's 60-day notice requirement for those employers that satisfy the Order's specific conditions.
Employees who are laid off are generally eligible for unemployment benefits, as long as they meet California's earning requirements and make active efforts to look for a new job. If you're eligible, you can receive a portion of your average weekly wages, up to a maximum of $1,300 per week (for claims filed in 2020).
While the connotations of being laid off and being terminated are quite a bit different, for most California workers, there is no real legal difference. In both instances, the employer must comply with all relevant state and federal regulations.
Under California law, employees are considered what's called at-will, that you can be terminated for any reason, as long as it's not an unlawful reason, and there's no notice requirement.
The employer must give written notice of termination of employment in accordance with the prescribed notice period to the worker who is being dismissed. If they do not give notice or do not give sufficient notice, the worker is entitled to an indemnity, that is, monetary compensation.
Congress passed the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (popularly known as the WARN or plant closing law) in 1989. It requires employers of 100 or more employees to give 60 days' notice before closing a facility or starting a layoff of 50 people or more.
Under the WARN Act provisions, an employer who orders a plant closing or mass layoff without providing this notice is liable to each unnotified employee for back pay and benefits for up to 60 days during which the employer is in violation of the WARN Act.
Generally speaking, the California WARN Act, Labor Code 1400 et seq., applies to all California employees of whom both of the following are true: The employee has been employed by the employer for at least six (6) of the twelve (12) months preceding the date on which notification would be required; and.
A 60-day advance written notice IS NOT REQUIRED if the plant closing or mass layoff was "caused by business circumstances that were not reasonably foreseeable as of the time that notice would have been required."
