Really is it? I out side some high paid friends their severance package is laid out in their contracts.No severance package? That is truly horrible.
I'm sure most of these jobs where at hire/fire/quit at will. Yes short notice sucks but im sure anyone of these workers could have quit with out notice.
Sucks they lost employment but as many said the boom is over for now. If any of these workers came on in the past 6-8 years they should have seen this coming at some point
I would be interested to see the percentage of laid of by pay and time on the job.
Seems big business likes to cut the top and bottom 10% then a little from the middle?
As far as no health care, I thought federal law came into play and coverage is extended for X amount of weeks upon termination of position.
