CONNECTICUT — A solar energy company with offices in multiple states announced this week "permanent layoffs" are planned for its three offices in Connecticut, with nearly 80 employees affected.
According to a WARN notice sent Monday to the Connecticut Department of Labor, PosiGen Developer LLC plans to implement permanent layoffs at its facilities in Shelton, Danbury and Wethersfield "effective immediately."
The layoffs commenced Sunday, affecting a total of 78 employees located in or reporting remotely to the three Connecticut facilities, according to the notice.
"This layoff will result in, among other things, the permanent closure of one or more operating units at the [three] facilities," Chief Administrative Officer John Truschinger wrote in the WARN notice. "The company is actively seeking to obtain sufficient financing from its lender to continue its remaining operations and/or to effectuate a sale of its remaining business and, if it cannot do so, it intends to shut down all operations and close [the three Connecticut] facilities on a permanent basis."
The notice also indicates the company plans to shut down all operations and close the three Connecticut facilities on a permanent basis if it is unable to "obtain sufficient financing to continue operations or to effectuate a sale of its remaining business," resulting in the termination of eight remaining employees of the facilities between Aug. 31 and Sept. 13.
