Is it true MPG employees won’t get WARN pay? I just read this rumor... I was at GM less than 3 years (barely) and laid off on Feb 4th at MPG.
I would expect my last paycheck to be at the end of this month for 2yrs severance.... would seem really unfair if MPG employees won’t get a full 60 days of pay vs other locations.
I would love to see the "layoff algorithm" GM employed. I am sure the lawyers were jumping through hoops and doing legal somersaults to make sure the numbers were hit just right to minimize WARN.
I was surprised by the group numbers I was in, and had never heard of before, the first time I saw them was on the sticker with my name attached to the severance package I received. I wonder if some group numbers were created just for the layoff
Just another way for GM to screw us
Yes unfortunately not every site got the WARN act pay, it goes by site depending on how many were laid off:
The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 (the "WARN Act") is a US labor law which protects employees, their families, and communities by requiring most employers with 100 or more employees to provide 60 calendar-day advance notification of plant closings and mass layoffs of employees, as defined in the Act.
Sorry but it's true that WTC gets WARN and MPG does not. I don't think any locations but WTC got WARN.
