WARN Advisor

The WARN Advisor is designed to help you learn more about the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN). In particular, it helps you understand the situations in which WARN does and does not apply by helping you determine if you are a covered employer or whether your employer is covered and explaining WARN's various rules and exceptions. To begin, select from the list of questions below.

Employee Issues

• Is my employer covered under WARN?
• Is my particular event a covered event under WARN?
• What happens when my employer sells my place of employment?
• What happens if my firm goes bankrupt?
