Reading the Cardinal Health WARN Record
Cardinal Health has 2 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 108 workers between Feb 2, 2010 and Feb 1, 2016. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, Cardinal Health ranks #372 of 757 tracked employers in WA. Among the 8 other Health Care & Social Assistance employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 888 affected workers -- Cardinal Health's 108 sits well below that group's typical scale. Filings span 2 states, most concentrated in WA (Health Care & Social Assistance), so more than one state workforce agency and mini-WARN threshold applied depending on where each notice was filed.
Averaging 54 workers per notice, Cardinal Health's filings fall into a pattern that suggests targeted team or department cuts that still crossed the WARN reporting threshold. The 2 notices on file represent distinct events, each triggering a 60-day advance warning obligation that fed into state rapid-response systems.
Workers on WA-based Cardinal Health notices should contact the WA workforce agency directly, response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice.
