Plant closing and notice period questions after 12 years as a machine operator

Our team was told about a closure date that is 8 weeks away. It has been weighing on me all week. They offered a retention bonus for people who stay.

Write down key dates and keep copies of the notice. Mine helped when a question came up later.

The workforce board ran a rapid-response session for us with résumé help and information on benefits. Ask if yours will.
