Does it count in the layoff numbers if the company offers a “voluntary resignation” package with no plans to replace any employees that take the package?

Translation: it’s probably twice that.
Maybe I should get back to work.[/quote]
That’s the U3 number… when you add in the involuntarily part time workers… (U6) it’s 13.5%.
My husband falls in that catagory. The firm he works for has no work… so they’re all part time and hoping the doors will be open next week or next month.

January 9, 2009 at 5:47 PM #326497CostaMesaParticipantOh man did I dodge a bullet…got whacked Dec. 19 and start a new job on Wednesday.
Seems like most of the VC funded companies I know of have shed at least half their people – as was the case at my previous employer.
Now I just gotta get used to being pimped out. 🙁
