I have been told that the 60 day tap can be:
- 60 days not working but paid (those with access to databases and such)
- 30 days working and 30 not
- 60 days working
Are nonexempt employees treated differently?

If you are a 1 or 2... Give yourself some more time. File an ER complaint and contest the rating but be prepared to document it.
Hourly or non exempt get the full 60 days non work. Once the company effectively lays them off the job ends, and they are no longer required to work, they can however choose to work.
Pray you're not terminated for cause. They instituted the bell curve performance rating system to avoid paying severance.
1s and 2s are in the crosshairs. S—y company.
60 days notice is required by the WARN act. (except in NY, which has additional laws that make the notice period 90 days).
The split between working and nonworking is usually 30 working, 30 nonworking but depending on circumstances it can be all nonworking or all working. When you enter nonworking you have to surrender your equipment and ID and you are locked out of systems. The company still has the right to call on you or call you back during nonworking time. You are legally an employee until the end of the notice period and once that's over, severance kicks in and you are no longer an empl.
It's 1 month continued work, then one month off for job search. During the job search time, they can call you back if there is a business need. After that, you begin severance.
Unless the terminate you for non performing, the lay-off process is the same regardless of your rating
New to wf. 7 months. What is this 60 days. Guess you get paid 60 days pay regardless of being let go or working and get paid up to 60 days. Seems risky letting people continue to work knowing they are getting laid off
No, it's all the same process.
