Thread regarding GlobalFoundries layoffs

The poor, unfortunate, dedicated peons will get laid off while the no nothing management who got the company into this situation get to stay. Something is wrong with this picture.

I forgot, what was I thinking, EF was always the black sheep and was given the shaft

It is legal as its a different site

Question, EF employees that were laid off were only given 60 days pay, not 90 that Malta was given.Is this legal ? Someone contacted the NYS WARN act office and they were looking into it. Curious if anything can be done .

Links about H1b may consider as temp worker:

NYS warn regulation: Subpart 921-5 https://labor.ny.gov/workforcenypartners/warn/pdfs/Text_of_New_York_State_WARN_Rule_7-10.pdf

USCIS H1b

Disclaimer: Not a lawyer, just share some web links

please share link which mention about exclusion of H1B workers a and less then 6 months.

Now these numbers make sense. That's why total employees on site is left blank and so real number does not show up indirectly .

The WARN regulations allows exclusion of the temporary workers such as those on H1B visas, so probably the actual numbers are probably significantly higher with them included.

Folks less than 6 months with the company are not needed to be counted.

This notice did not include Fishkill site ~37 and several other sites such as Bangalore, Singapore and Santa Clara/ Austin etc.

455+37+other sites=650+

We will never know the fuzzy math used.

I think the November date is 3 months + August so they are talking about this week’s layoff. Correct me if I’m wrong!
