The WARN Act (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988) is a U.S. labor law requiring employers with 100+ employees to give 60 days' advance written notice for qualified plant closings or mass layoffs, allowing workers time to prepare and find new jobs or training, protecting employees, families, and communities from sudden economic shocks
