Will WARN be applicable to all offices in CA even if the layoffs on my office site is less than 50. Is it per office site or all offices across the state

Guys, they don't need to keep you in payroll as long as they handout 60 days pay and benefits (insurance). Again, it is 60 day notice OR pay and benefits. Usually you will get paid but will not be coming to work.
@osx. Not sure what is stupid. The links give a hypothetical case by which the federal WARN Act can be violated with little recourse in civil court. Trying to rebut that with an unrelated example of complying with the WARN Act does not make logical sense. FFS you must be a Qualcomm employee.
The guy below doesn’t understand warn. You’re an employee for all those 60 days. They just ask you not show up.
That isn’t violation of the law.
You’re just stupid.
it seems to be 50 not 100
It's per location, not state. I think the location has to have 100 ppl layoffs for WARN to kick in.
A company can lay you off tomorrow, violate WARN, give you 60 days pay, and there’s nothing the government will do about it:

WARN is only applicable if it is required.
interesting question not sure
