Big trucking company Yellow went bankrupt and laid off many workers. This caused legal trouble because they didn't give everyone enough warning before letting them go. This is important because workers have rights!
- Yellow had to pay money to some workers because they didn't get 60 days' notice before being fired (like the law says).
- About 3,200 non-union workers got $8.75 million in total.
- Around 492 union workers got $3.55 million for not getting enough warning and for unpaid time off.
- Yellow is also fighting in court about paying $6.5 billion in pension money.
