WARN Act filings only capture layoffs of 50+ workers at sites of 100+ employees, so smaller reductions, contractor non-renewals, and voluntary separations are not shown here.

Reading the Federal Express WARN Record

Federal WARN Act filings place Federal Express on record with 2 notices covering 43 workers, spanning Jan 6, 2025 through Jun 3, 2026. Because the WARN Act only captures events that affect 50 or more workers at sites of 100+ employees, this count sits at the upper band of the employer's layoff activity — smaller reductions, contractor non-renewals, and voluntary separations are invisible to this dataset. The geographic footprint of 1 state, anchored in MD, in the Transportation & Warehousing sector, shapes which state workforce agencies received the filings and which state-level "mini-WARN" thresholds applied.

Averaging 22 workers per notice, Federal Express'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.

For workers, the practical layer under these numbers is time: the WARN Act's 60-day notification window triggers eligibility for state unemployment insurance, COBRA health-coverage continuation, and rapid-response services from the state workforce agency that received the filing. Workers on MD-based Federal Express notices should contact the MD workforce agency directly — response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice. The record above reflects filed notices only; subsequent hiring, rescinded closures, or facility reopenings are not tracked by WARN disclosures.
