You, the boss, are paying for it through a tax levied against your payroll. WARN considers a mass layoff to be an employment loss during any 30-day period of 500 or more covered workforce. The grounds for dismissing a jobholder may be valid, but handling the circumstance badly can cancel this. Well-Written Notifications of Layoff Not Too Difficult.
