Federal WARN Act filings place Walmart #5931 on record with 1 notice covering 217 workers, spanning Mar 9, 2021 through Mar 9, 2021. 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 TX, in the Retail Trade sector, shapes which state workforce agencies received the filings and which state-level "mini-WARN" thresholds applied.
Averaging 217 workers per notice, Walmart #5931's filings fall into a pattern that is consistent with site-level consolidation or a multi-department reduction in force. This single notice marks a discrete restructuring event rather than a sustained pattern, though workforce changes below the 50-worker WARN floor may have occurred without disclosure.
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 TX-based Walmart #5931 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. The record above reflects filed notices only; subsequent hiring, rescinded closures, or facility reopenings are not tracked by WARN disclosures.
Walmart #5931 has one WARN Act filing on record. A single notice may reflect an isolated restructuring event, facility closure, or response to changing market conditions.
Each notice has affected an average of 217 workers, representing moderately sized workforce reductions. WARN Act notices only capture layoffs meeting federal thresholds (50+ workers) and may not represent all workforce changes.
Walmart #5931 has filed 1 WARN Act notice affecting 217 workers across 1 state. The most recent notice was filed on Mar 9, 2021.
According to WARN Act filings, Walmart #5931 has affected 217 workers total, averaging 217 workers per notice.
Walmart #5931 has filed WARN notices in 1 state: TX.
The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act requires employers with 100+ employees to provide 60 days advance notice of plant closings and mass layoffs affecting 50 or more workers. Not all layoffs require WARN notice.
Workers affected by a WARN-notified layoff may be eligible for unemployment insurance, COBRA health coverage continuation, job retraining through the Trade Adjustment Assistance program, and severance packages if offered by the employer. State workforce agencies often provide additional rapid response services.
Walmart #5931 has affected 217 workers across 1 WARN filing in the Retail Trade sector. The federal WARN Act only captures layoffs affecting 50 or more workers, so actual workforce changes may be larger.
