Does anyone know what happens if someone is on leave and is affected by a RIF? Like if they are on FMLA or maternity/paternity leave? I know they wait until you return to tell you, but does your 60 days of garden leave start then? Or is it already ticking and you just get the x weeks of severance? I know the garden leave is done so they can walk you out the door but also satisfy the WARN act.

I believe HR will contact you on leave if your impacted. You would already be disabled in the system as "On Leave" status.
