WARN: Judicial Treatment of Exemptions, Exclusions, and Excuses

Abstract

The underlying objective of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act ("WARN") is to provide workers with advance notice of plant closings and mass layoffs, so that they may have time to adjust and to seek retraining or new employment. Concerns about WARN's impact on businesses, however, prompted inclusion of provisions excepting employers from the notice requirement or reducing or eliminating any monetary liability. This Article examines the case law interpreting and applying these limitations to determine how courts have resolved the competing concerns embodied in the statute.
