Reading the Silgan Containers WARN Record
Silgan Containers has 4 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 392 workers between Feb 1, 2016 and Aug 25, 2025. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, Silgan Containers ranks #56 of 630 tracked employers in CA. Among the 8 other Manufacturing employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 6,675 affected workers -- Silgan Containers's 392 sits well below that group's typical scale. Filings span 2 states, most concentrated in CA (Manufacturing), so more than one state workforce agency and mini-WARN threshold applied depending on where each notice was filed.
Averaging 98 workers per notice, Silgan Containers'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 CA-based Silgan Containers notices should contact the CA workforce agency directly, response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice.
