Two businesses have recently filed mass layoff notices in Missouri.

Under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, companies must file an advance notice when planning to lay off 50 or more employees. This ensures state and local assistance can be provided to those affected. Below are the businesses recently filing a WARN Notice with the Missouri Office of Workforce Development advising of layoffs.

• Signature Psychiatric Hospital will be laying off 154 employees around the Kansas City area on November 11.
• Adient is laying off 172 people in Missouri.
