US oil and gas giant, Chevron Corp. has hinted of plans to lay-off about 288 employees at the company’s regional headquarters at 700 Cherrington Parkway in Moon Township, PA, by April 6, 2020.
The company gave the hint in a WARN notice it sent to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry earlier this month.
The notice indicated that an unspecified number of lay-offs would occur April 6 and added that some employees will be offered temporary assignments, with extended lay-off dates potentially through the end of this year.
“We are taking active steps to reduce job loss and will facilitate the placement of as many impacted employees as we can with other Chevron business units,” the letter stated.
Chevron also indicated that any employees who are laid off would receive severance and outplacement services.
“The WARN Act is a regulatory requirement intended to give employees advance notice before potential layoffs at a plant or facility. It’s too soon to know how many employees will be affected on or after the April 6 date indicated in the WARN letter,’’ a source at Chevron said in a reply to an email by Rigzone.
