When hundreds of remote employees are laid off, do they count as working at the same “site” under the WARN Act? A recent federal court decision shows the answer isn’t so simple.

In Dargon v. Xtend Healthcare, LLC, a federal court in Tennessee held that remote employees working from fixed home offices did not share a "single site of employment".

That distinction matters because the federal WARN Act generally requires covered employers to provide 60 days’ notice before certain mass layoffs or plant closings — but the requirements depend in part on how many employees are affected at a single site.

Courts are currently split on how these rules apply to fully remote workforces, and the Eleventh Circuit has not squarely resolved the issue.

For Georgia employers considering a reduction in force, Dargon may offer guidance — but relying on it isn’t without risk.

A new Fifth Circuit ruling could reshape a common defense in workplace harassment cases.

In EEOC v. SkyWest Airlines, Inc., the court held that a Title VII plaintiff seeking emotional-distress damages has no legal duty to mitigate those damages by seeking therapy, medication, or other treatment.

While the decision is binding only in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, it could have implications beyond the Fifth Circuit. The Eleventh Circuit has not squarely decided the issue, making the ruling potentially persuasive authority in future cases in Georgia.

For employers, the takeaway is important: emotional-distress damages can still be challenged on issues like causation, severity, credibility, and documentation — but a plaintiff’s decision not to seek treatment may not be enough to reduce their recovery.

What happens when artificial intelligence helps determine who loses a job?

Twenty-six current and former Meta employees allege that AI-assisted productivity metrics disadvantaged workers who took protected medical, parental, or caregiving leave during a recent layoff process. Meta denies the allegations, and no court has ruled on the merits.

The case highlights an important issue for employers: existing anti-discrimination and protected-leave laws still apply when workplace decisions involve algorithms or automated tools.

Employers using AI in performance evaluations or workforce planning should carefully examine the data behind these systems, test their outcomes for potential disparities, and ensure human review is meaningful and documented.
