What is a WARN Notice?


WHAT IS A WARN ACT NOTICE?

A&P has informed the UFCW/RWDSU that it plans to issue WARN notices to all of our members working for the company. Unfortunately, these WARN notices inform workers that they may be laid off within 60-90 days due to store closures.

Workers are required by law in some circumstances to receive a WARN notice when an employer believes that it may no longer employ them. 

What is a WARN Notice? Read the quick fact sheet here.

Private sector employers in New York State that employ more than 50 are required to issue a WARN notice 90 days before closing a plant. They must also notify when there is a layoff that affects 33 percent of the workforce (at least 25 notice to employees, their representatives,workers) or 250 workers from a single employment site. They must send the State Labor Department and local workforce investment partners.
 

The A&P company has indicated that they will be sending out the letters tomorrow (update: letters have been confirmed and sent out) and are having their managers conduct in-store meetings to discuss the notice.

While some of our members may face a layoff at the end of this process, many others will remain working in stores that are sold. At this point our contracts are still in effect.

The company has received bids from Ahold, Albertsons, and Key Foods to buy stores. A list of these stores can be found attached in Exhibit A. At this time, we are currently bargaining with the above companies in anticipation of these bids being successful.

Also attached is Exhibit B. This list shows which stores have not yet received bids from potential buyers. We expect that a number of these stores will eventually be sold. However, at this time, we don’t know which or how many of these stores will be sold.  

Whether your store is being bought by a new employer or closed, we understand the concern and impact that these changes are having upon you and your family. You will be updated as soon as we learn any more information. 

We understand that the uncertainty of this situation is causing enormous stress, but please know we are here to help and support you and your family in every way we can.

Our Union, with the resources and support of the UFCW International/ RWDSU, is fighting to best protect your rights and save as many jobs as possible.  

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your Union Representative.
