What is the name of your state? Florida
The company I work for recently informed us that our division will be relocating to NC. We were told that they would like for all of us to move with them, but should we choose not to make the move then they would not be responsible to ensure employment within the company at other locations (although many of us have 5, 10, or more years with the company). I have several questions due to this statement; 1) If the move is a company decision, do they have any type of legal obligations in placing those that are not able (i.e. financially) to relocate in comparative positions within the company locally? 2) Would an employee being pregnant effect their obligation (or lack thereof) in job placement within the company locally? 3) Is there a responsibility of the employer to offer a severance package to all employees, or to even offer one in general?
