Report Link New York Department of Labor Further Revises Its NY WARN Act Emergency Regulations.Ogletree Deakins - August 13, 2009 The New York Department of Labor has further revised its Emergency Regulations concerning the NY WARN Act, as detailed in published comments in the July 15, 2009 NYS Register. As we have advised previously, the NY WARN Act is far broader in scope than the federal WARN Act, in that it covers smaller employers (those with 50 or more employees, as compared to 100 or more employees), smaller job losses (a mere 25 employees satisfy certain thresholds, as compared to 50) and requires 90, rather than 60, days advance notice of covered employment losses. Among the new changes and comments to the Emergency Regulations: Report Link Reminder: New York WARN Act Takes Effect February 1, 2009.Ogletree Deakins - February 13, 2009 New York employers are reminded that the New York WARN Act, which is far broader in scope than the federal WARN Act, went into effect on February 1, 2009. For a detailed summary of the differences between the federal WARN Act and the New York WARN Act Report Link New York State Department of Labor Issues Proposed Rule for NY WARN Act.Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC - February 05, 2009 On January 30, 2009, the New York State Department of Labor filed a proposed rule governing the interpretation and implementation of the New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (NY WARN) Act. The rule took effect on February 1, 2009, the same date as its authorizing legislation. Report Link New York WARN Act: Additional Notice Required for Mass-Layoffs, Plant Closings and Relocations.Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC - December 26, 2008 Due to current economic conditions, many employers are considering workforce reductions and changes that may require them to provide at least 60 days' advance notice to comply with the Federal Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act (WARN) and/or mini-WARN acts applicable in 16 states, including California, Connecticut, New Jersey and Illinois. Report Link Legal Alert: New York WARN Act - New Burdens on Employers.Ford & Harrison LLP - December 17, 2008 On February 1, 2009, the New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act ("NYWA") goes into effect. Although it is based on the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act ("WARN"), the NYWA is much broader; it adds new concepts that are unclearly drafted and likely to cause confusion and litigation if it is not revised. Report Link New York Passes State Version of "WARN"Vedder Price - September 22, 2008 The Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Notifi cation Act
(WARN) is a federal law that
requires employers who
employ at least 100
employees to provide advance
notice of plant closings and
mass layoffs. Some states
have enacted state versions of
WARN which often cover
employers too small to be
covered by federal law. In
August 2008 New York State
became one of those states,
enacting a state WARN law
that becomes effective on
February 1, 2009 and applies
to private employers who
employ 50 or more employees. Report Link New York Governor Signs “Mini-WARN Act”; Expands Federal WARN Act Requirements.Ogletree Deakins - September 10, 2008 Joining New Jersey, which passed similar “mini-WARN” legislation in 2007, New York Governor Paterson signed into law the New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act on August 5, 2008, which requires advance notice to employees in the event of certain mass layoffs, relocations, and plant closings.
