Reading the STARTEK WARN Record
STARTEK has 4 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 1,275 workers between Jan 24, 2011 and Mar 9, 2020. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, STARTEK ranks #7 of 777 tracked employers in VA. Among the 8 other Professional & Technical Services employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 902 affected workers -- STARTEK's 1,275 sits above that group's typical scale. Filings span 3 states, most concentrated in VA (Professional & Technical Services), so more than one state workforce agency and mini-WARN threshold applied depending on where each notice was filed.
Averaging 319 workers per notice, STARTEK's filings fall into a pattern that is consistent with site-level consolidation or a multi-department reduction in force. 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 STARTEK 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This record reflects filed notices only; subsequent hiring, rescinded closures, or facility reopenings are not tracked by WARN disclosures.
