Reading the Tesla WARN Record
Tesla has 2 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 2,743 workers between Aug 18, 2023 and Apr 23, 2024. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, Tesla ranks #8 of 2223 tracked employers in TX. Among the 8 other Other Services employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 3,640 affected workers -- Tesla's 2,743 sits below that group's typical scale. Filings span 2 states, most concentrated in TX (Other Services), so more than one state workforce agency and mini-WARN threshold applied depending on where each notice was filed.
Averaging 1,372 workers per notice, Tesla's filings fall into a pattern that resembles full-facility closures or company-wide restructuring, events that can reshape local labor markets for years. 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 TX-based Tesla notices should contact the TX workforce agency directly, response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice.
