LAZ Parking California California Layoffs 2026: What Employees Should Know
LAZ Parking California has 3 layoff notices on file with California's Employment Development Department (EDD) under the state's Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, covering 247 jobs in Los Angeles County. That is what the state has published since July 2025, not an all-time total. If you were one of them, here is what the filing says, how much notice the law asks for, and what to look at before you sign anything.

What the filing says
These are the details as LAZ Parking California reported them to the state. The EDD publishes every notice, and these figures come from the state's report as retrieved on Aug 20, 2026.
| Location | County | Notice given | Jobs end | Workers | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles | Los Angeles County | Aug 6, 2026 | Oct 6, 2026 | 139 | Layoff Permanent |
| Los Angeles | Los Angeles County | Aug 6, 2026 | Oct 6, 2026 | 58 | Layoff Permanent |
| Los Angeles | Los Angeles County | Aug 6, 2026 | Oct 6, 2026 | 50 | Layoff Permanent |
How much notice the law requires
California's WARN Act requires 60 days of advance written notice before a covered mass layoff, and its only statutory exception is a physical calamity or an act of war — far narrower than federal law's three. Who is covered and how the thresholds are counted is in our California WARN Act guide.
What this filing shows
The shortest gap in these filings is 61 calendar days between the notice date and the date the jobs end. That is at or above the 60 days the statute describes.
In dates: counting 60 days back from the Oct 6, 2026 last day of work lands on Aug 7, 2026, and that notice is dated Aug 6, 2026.
This is a fact drawn from the public filing, not a conclusion that anyone broke the law. The date an employer records is not always the date workers were told, employers of different sizes are covered differently, and exceptions can apply. Whether it means anything in your case is exactly what a free consultation sorts out.
LAZ Parking California severance: what to check before you sign
A severance offer is not the notice pay the WARN Act describes. Severance you were already promised — in a contract, a handbook, or a union agreement — cannot be used to satisfy that obligation, though Labor Code section 1402 does let an employer reduce a back-pay award by voluntary payments it was never required to make. A release may also give up more than you expect. Justin reviews severance agreements before workers sign. What to check before you decide is in our full guide to the California WARN Act.
Two things worth doing this week either way. File for unemployment now — WARN money does not reduce it, and the filings here run through Oct 6, 2026, so you do not have to wait for your last day. And keep every document, including the notice itself and anything showing when it arrived.

Were you part of the LAZ Parking California layoff?
Before you sign anything, have the paperwork read. Justin reviews severance offers and WARN notices for free, responds personally, and if there is no recovery you owe no fee.
What your notice was required to include
Timing is only half of what Labor Code section 1401 asks for. The notice itself has to contain specific things, and California added most of this list for notices issued on or after January 1, 2026. Every notice on this page falls after that date. If you kept your copy, read it against the full six-item checklist in our WARN Act guide — everything federal law requires, whether transition help is being coordinated, working contact details for your workforce board and for the employer itself, and CalFresh information.
Source: Labor Code section 1401, as amended by SB 617, effective January 1, 2026. A notice missing something from that list is not automatically a violation with a remedy attached — whether a gap matters depends on the employer, the action, and what else happened.
Questions people are asking
What is the LAZ Parking California severance package?
The WARN notice LAZ Parking California filed with the state does not list severance terms, and we do not publish any employer's package. A WARN notice reports how many jobs end, where, and when. Severance is a separate contract offered at the employer's discretion. California law does not require it, and an employer cannot use contractual severance to satisfy what the WARN Act requires, so being offered a package does not by itself answer whether notice pay is also owed. If you have an offer in hand, the terms in front of you are the ones that matter, and they are worth reading closely before the deadline on them runs.
Am I owed severance from LAZ Parking California?
California law does not require severance on its own, and a severance offer is a separate thing from WARN pay. An employer cannot use contractual severance to satisfy its WARN obligation, so being offered a package does not answer whether notice pay is also owed.
Does taking the severance reduce what I could recover?
It depends on why the money is being paid. Severance the employer was already obligated to provide — under a contract, a policy, a benefit plan, or a union agreement — cannot be set against what the WARN Act requires. A payment that is genuinely voluntary and unconditional, one the employer had no legal obligation to make, can reduce that liability. Wages for work you actually performed during the notice period are not voluntary severance at all. Which category LAZ Parking California's offer falls into is a question about the document in front of you, not about the layoff, and it is one of the better reasons to have the paperwork read before the deadline on it runs.
What if I did not get 60 days of notice?
California's WARN Act requires 60 days of advance written notice before a covered mass layoff, and its only statutory exception is a physical calamity or an act of war. That is far narrower than federal law, which has three exceptions. The shortest gap in these filings is 61 days, at or above the 60 the statute describes. Notice can still fall short in practice if it did not reach you when the filing says, or if it lacked what the statute requires it to contain.
Can I still collect unemployment?
Yes. Under Labor Code section 1407, WARN-related payments are not treated as wages for unemployment purposes, so they cannot be used to deny or reduce your benefits in California. You do not have to wait for your last day — the filings here run through Oct 6, 2026 — and filing early is generally better than filing late.
Does taking a new job hurt my claim?
No. Wages you earn at a new job during the notice period do not reduce what LAZ Parking California may owe under WARN. That holds even if you start before Oct 6, 2026, the last day of work in these filings. You do not need to delay a job search to protect a claim.
How long do I have to act?
Generally three years. The federal WARN Act sets no limitations period of its own, so courts borrow the closest state deadline, which in California is the three-year period for a liability created by statute. The clock starts when you suffer an employment loss, not when the notice went out. Measured from the last day of work in these filings, Oct 6, 2026, three years runs to about Oct 6, 2029. If this was a layoff rather than an outright termination, the loss may not count until the layoff has lasted more than six months, which can start the clock later still. Treat all of it as an outer edge rather than a plan. Other claims arising from the same layoff run much shorter, and a severance offer usually carries its own deadline measured in days.
Where a layoff can raise a legal question
A layoff is lawful on its own, and nothing below is a statement about LAZ Parking California. These are the places California law can still come into play, depending on the facts of your own situation.
- The severance you were asked to signA release can give up claims you did not know you had, and the terms are sometimes negotiable.
- How you were selectedA reduction in force still cannot be used to cut someone for a protected reason such as age, disability, pregnancy, or a complaint they made.
- Your final paycheckCalifornia sets when final wages are due at termination, and unpaid time or accrued vacation can carry penalties on top of the wages.
General information about California law, not legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What the numbers show
- The 247 affected positions are in Los Angeles.
- They cover 3 separate addresses rather than a single site, so co-workers at different locations may have received different dates.
- The shortest gap between notice and last day here is 61 days, close to the statewide median of 61 days across every notice on file.
- By headcount it sits in the top 15% of the 605 employer layoffs tracked here.
- The EDD records the employer's sector as Other Services.
- The 247 workers leaving LAZ Parking California re-enter a job market where Los Angeles County unemployment stood at 5.3% in June 2026, above the 5.2% statewide rate (Bureau of Labor Statistics, not seasonally adjusted).
- All 3 notices are dated within a single month, August 2026, which reads as one event reported site by site rather than a rolling reduction.
