well, if you think morass is in every thread - then you have seen the previous posts about layoffs, how many, what the severance is etc. No - this site ian't a text messaging service . the previous posts are fresh, just a few days old at best and only a page scroll down - which wouldn't be a page scroll at all - if people would stop asking the same stupid question. standard severance is 2 weeks pay per year worked - not only ar cbs - but tv in general - not just tv in general - but just about any city or company in the US the standard severance is 2 weeks per year worked. why do there need to be excessive posts?

there wouldn't be "old" posts if you would just comment on existing ones that are 3-4 posts back and only a few days "old"
Dude seriously morASS, stop going into like every thread and whining like an infant about people asking questions. that is LITERALLY what this website is for. And checking old posts is not always the right solution since information changes regularly. If you don't like someone's post literally just scroll past it- not rocket science.
To the last response-you dont f—ing OWN this website. People are entitled to ask questions. I swear some of you people are such a–holes
if you would take the Effort to scroll down 3 or 4 posts you would see a post about severance. if people read existng boards - important information wouldn't get lost in the uneccessary morass of boards
Note: I was laid off in 2018.
Also, and just to be totally clear to anyone who is not sure and worked in NY: payments this company makes to you pursuant to the WARN Act are not "severance" payments, and the State of New York does not count WARN Act-related payments as severance. These are legally-mandated payments made to you for not providing you 90 days notice of a mass layoff, so bear that in mind when you're filing for unemployment benefits.

§921-1.1 Definitions.
(c) Date of layoff means the last day an employee is eligible or permitted to work for his/her
employer. The fact that an employer continues to pay an employee after the date of the layoff
does not change the employee’s employment status for purposes of this Part. Payments to an
employee subsequent to the date of layoff, whether continuing to pay an employee’s normal
weekly wage, or for severance pay, vacation pay, personal leave, and other similar benefits, shall
not extend the employee’s date of layoff.
not sure if they did it for freelancers but if no warning was given extra weeks of pay that would equal the amount of warn act that is required.
Were you laid off today @permalancer?
2 weeks pay for every year you worked. So, I got ripped off for $48,000. They switched me to freelance/permalance two years before laying me off. Gave me zero severance. I would love to throw a bunch of f-bombs right now, but won't.
2 weeks pay for every year you worked, thats the whole shazam
