Public Sector HR Association (PSHRA) Certification Practice Test

California’s WARN Act requires 60 days’ advance notice when an employer with 75 or more employees plans a mass layoff, relocation, or termination that affects a significant portion of workers. The threshold of 75 employees is why this is the minimum size for triggering the 60-day notice under CalWARN. This standard is lower than the federal WARN threshold, which centers on about 100 employees, reflecting California’s broader protection for workers. Therefore, the minimum number is 75. The other options don’t fit because 25 and 50 are below CalWARN’s trigger, and 100 aligns with federal law, not California’s.
