Summary

Strauss Borrelli PLLC is investigating Amentum for a potential violation of the WARN Act after Amentum notified the Maryland Department of Labor on August 18, 2026 that it would conduct a mass layoff at its Hanover, Maryland facility. The firm alleges Amentum laid off (or plans to lay off) 317 employees and may have failed to provide the 60 days’ notice required under the WARN Act, which could entitle affected workers to back pay and benefits. The notice triggered the investigation into whether the company provided adequate WARN notice and whether employees are owed remedies. Amentum is identified as a Chantilly, Virginia-headquartered government services contractor; the article seeks affected employees to contact the law firm for potential claims.
