4 days ago: Wedgewood files WARN notice for 71 San Jose workers

Overview

Updated 1 hour ago

Wedgewood Village Pharmacy, LLC filed a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification notice with California on November 2, 2026. The notice covers 71 employees at 17 Great Oaks Boulevard in San Jose and sets a layoff date of January 4, 2027.

The filing is an employer's intent to lay off, not a report that the jobs have already ended. California's WARN Act requires 60 days' written notice before a mass layoff at a covered workplace, giving workers and local workforce boards time to prepare.

Why it matters

The notice gives 71 San Jose workers and local workforce boards 60 days to prepare for a January 4 layoff.

  1. Wedgewood files WARN notice for 71 San Jose workers

    Latest Filing

    The company reported a layoff at 17 Great Oaks Boulevard, effective January 4, 2027.

Scenarios

1

Layoff proceeds on January 4, 2027

Likely Resolves by Jan 4, 2027

Discussed by: California EDD WARN notice

The company follows the notice and ends 71 positions at 17 Great Oaks Boulevard on the reported date. No further state filing is needed for the layoff to occur.

2

Company amends or delays the layoff

Possible Resolves by Jan 4, 2027

Discussed by: California EDD WARN filings

Employers can file amended notices that change the date or number of affected workers. A new filing before January 4 would shift the timeline.

3

Site closes or adds more layoffs

Unlikely Resolves by Q2 2027

Discussed by: California EDD WARN filings

A closure notice or a second layoff filing would show the San Jose site is shrinking beyond the 71 workers named in November.
