Supplemental Notice Pursuant to Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act
Dear Coordinator Fracasso and Mayor Dickinson: This letter is being issued to supplement our previous letter(s) dated January 31, 2017, and in accordance with any possible obligation under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, regarding Bristol-Myers Squibb's (the "Company") ongoing plan to close our Wallingford, CT site located at 5 Research Parkway, Wallingford, CT 06492 (the "Facility") by the end of 2018. We write to advise that, in addition to the employee separations at the Facility previously described in our prior letters, the Company also now anticipates that 3 employees at the Facility will be separated effective February 6, 2018, 7 employees at the Facility will be separated effective March 31, 2018 and 97 employees separated effective April 3, 2018. The Wallingford Facility closure and any employee separations resulting therefrom are expected to be permanent. The Company's employees at the Wallingford Facility are not represented by a union or any other collective bargaining representative. All affected employees have been or will be notified of their employment terminations at least 60 days before their terminations are scheduled to occur. Because the Company does not recognize bumping rights for its employees, terminated employees are not permitted to displace remaining employees based on seniority or any other factor.
An updated list of the job titles of the 107 employees separated or anticipated to be separated at the Wallingford Facility is attached hereto. Affected employees will be paid all wages and other benefits to which they are entitled through their date of termination. On or before the effective date of any affected employee's termination, the Company will provide information concerning benefits available under separate cover to eligible affected employees. Affected employees will be paid all wages and other benefits to which they are entitled through their date of termination. On or before the effective date of each employee's termination, the Company will provide information concerning benefits available under separate cover to eligible affected employees. This supplement is given based upon the best information available to the Company at this time. For further information regarding this matter, please contact Tracy L. Smith at 203-677-3628. Sincerely,
Tracy L. Smith Human Resources Site Head, Wallingford
