Default WARN notices for RAH

Well, here we go, again. RAH employees just received CEO email stating WARN act notices will be going out to those affected by our need to furlough. No actual # or % in the email.

Below is a tidbit from his email:

"Thus, as a result of these unexpected and unforeseen business circumstances, we are making the hard decision today to furlough some of our employees in order to right-size our staffing levels to our current and expected flight levels.

Today, WARN Act notices are being sent to any employee (or their appropriate union representative) that maybe affected by these difficult staffing decisions. These include potential furloughees, employees that will be downgraded and employees that will be offered relocation to a different domicile."

Crap......stay tuned for details....and pray for us, as I have for everyone/every airline in this $hitty time.

Does anyone know if these are administrative positions, pilot/fa positions, or both?? Good luck to those involved.
PS -- His email did state that administrative positions will be realigned, as well as expenses. But I don't know if the 10% (500 employees) includes that, and his email didn't say "how many/what percent". Stay tuned. And THANKS for the well wishes/thoguhts.
