Employment attorney Kristin Hendriksen draws on her experience in a past life in restaurant operations to discuss the WARN Act and recent business closures with Matt Tedeschi, an employment paralegal and Marketing Manager at the firm.
Kristin and Matt explain what the WARN Act is and why it was passed before discussing the sudden shuttering of all locations of Dom’s and Foxtrot and the termination of all employees. They also touch upon the closure of the Signature Room in Chicago and a lawsuit that recently saw a large settlement for its former workers.
Could Dom’s and Foxtrot face the same fate? What should businesses do if they plan on terminating a large number of workers or closing several locations? Kristin and Matt offer their predictions and provide key advice for business owners and management.
