I keep seeing people say that 10/8 is a confirmed layoff date and that folks would get a 30 day notification if they’re impacted. Isn’t it a 60 day requirement?

The notification period varies by state based laws to get around the WARN notification.
Incorrect.
The 60 day period is to get under the warn radar.
The laid off employee is typically locked out of systems immediately after the HR conversation and is not expected to work the notice period. There are exceptions to this, but the overwhelming majority goes this way.
30 day notice is now standard, 60 day notice is when your job needs that amount of time to close things out bc it would negatively impact the business leaving anytime before 60 days.
@ay, even better.
60 days has been the notification period for the last few rounds.
I don't think that's true. Layoffs come with a 30 day notification period where you're still employed but not working. That's the WARN act period.
Cigna has fine-tuned it to lay off a certain number of employees so as to come in just under the WARN Act's threshold for each location in that particular state. In this way the WARN act does not get triggered.
