Reading the Serco WARN Record
Serco has 4 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 347 workers between Apr 25, 2012 and Jan 19, 2022. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, Serco ranks #67 of 777 tracked employers in VA. Among the 8 other Other Services employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 3,640 affected workers -- Serco's 347 sits well below that group's typical scale. Every recorded filing was reported to VA's workforce agency, in the Other Services sector -- a single-state footprint, unlike the multi-state pattern common among larger employers.
Averaging 87 workers per notice, Serco's filings fall into a pattern that suggests targeted team or department cuts that still crossed the WARN reporting threshold. The 4 notices on file represent distinct events, each triggering a 60-day advance warning obligation that fed into state rapid-response systems.
Workers on VA-based Serco notices should contact the VA workforce agency directly, response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice.

This record reflects filed notices only; subsequent hiring, rescinded closures, or facility reopenings are not tracked by WARN disclosures.
