Thread regarding ADP layoffs

Pre-office closing layoffs of employees

This may be a coincidence but I am wondering if anyone else has had similar things happen in their service centers.

It seems some of the employees that are being let go prior to offices closing are employees who have medical conditions. I know of 3 people that have been let go that are medical leave employees. They let the employees go with no notice and left them without health insurance, unless they wanted to pay out for COBRA. Who can afford that? Especially because they received no severance. I hope this is not a "business practice" they are using to save money on severance because almost everyone that works at ADP is on medical leave because of various health conditions.

Yep, they only care about you when you can put in all the overtime at year end during the holidays. No managers around to take escalated calls and the customers are screaming at you all day on the phones. It does not surprise me people there have health conditions.

If you don't think ADP aggressively lays off employees that have health issues you have your head in the sand. I worked for ADP for over 5 years with a steady progression in responsibilities including multiple promotions but when I began suffering and eventually diagnosed with a SERIOUS health problem and had to endure regular treatments that were hell (which of course impacted my attendance) they decided to "reorganize" and I got laid off. I asked if they could at least leave me on the insurance for a few months to help bridge the gap and they said, and I quote exactly, "We are not in the business of providing charitable care for former employees." I wish I was making this up! Coincidently the job that was eliminated (my job) amazingly was resisted as open on the careers section of ADP.com and eventually filled just a couple of months later.

I would give more info but would prefer to keep my anonymity for obvious reasons. Hard lesson to learn that loyalty isn't a two way street with ADP and it certainly forever changed the way I look at my relationship with future employers.

However, I do believe that you "get what you give" and the people that discarded me like trash at a time when I needed them to reciprocate the loyalty I had shown them will eventually "get what they give."

Agreed..and they will find a way to fire someone based on the JOB. Even though the original reason is the person was out on leave. Or maybe the VP doesnt like the person, etc...they will find a way to sabotage if necessary to get that person out.

Of course it is illegal to fire someone for health issues. But these employees were fired for performance issues. ADP is clever for employing that tactic.

To the ignorant comment it's illegal for any company to fire any worker because they have a chronic illness.

As bad as these layoffs are I know ADP is not targeting workers just because they have health issues.

In my days at ADP, I noticed that people that had chronic health problems were fired. Heck, they have a business to run, not take care of sick employees. If you cannot stay healthy, then goodbye.

You are right 100 percent. They let my wife go and she was a FMLA employee. Let her go with no notice at all and dropped health insurance two days later. Then the piece of crap CEO doesn't think I should complain out loud about it and direct it towards him.

When they treat people like that and have a medical condition that's why I think ADP can care less about the employees.

That is so cruel but it does not surprise me. This company will do anything to save a buck.
