WashTech has received calls questioning the legality of these layoffs. Excluded from this is any dismissal that falls under a protected classification such as race or gender. As a result, without a negotiated contract, employees in Washington State and across the country have very little recourse when laid off with no notice. Employees acquire a collective bargaining agreement through democratically negotiating with a company. We will continue to provide updated information regarding these layoffs on our website as more information becomes available.
