Federal law and guidance on this subject should be reviewed together with this section.
Author: Jessica Sussman
Summary
- Connecticut law is similar in many respects to the federal WARN Act, but imposes added requirements on certain employers that plan to conduct business closings or relocations. See Plant Closings and Relocations.
- Connecticut employees who report incidents of unlawful workplace conduct or fraud to public authorities are protected from retaliation, but are also limited to certain remedies. See Connecticut Retaliation Provisions.
- Connecticut employers who perform investigations prior to terminating employees are generally protected from claims stemming from the investigation itself. See Conducting Investigations Prior to Termination.
