Husband Terminated From Job… What Do We Do?


Long story shortened (I hope I can do it…)…
My husband worked for the same company for 25 years 6 months. At 23 years 5 months, he was told that the business was being sold to another company. They forced the employees to sign paperwork for the new company within 24 hours of notice or threatened that they would no longer be employed immediately if they did not. Everyone signed for fear of unemployment. The fact of the matter is, the business was not being sold to Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. The employees were. After a year and a half, Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., began to terminate original employees that were veterans of the original business. My husband became one of them, two weeks before I gave birth to our first child. They told my husband that they would have gotten rid of him much sooner, but wanted us to be able to have health insurance for the birth. Too bad they waited until March 22, 2011 and not any later. I gave birth April 4, 2011. Anyway, it was wrong for them to include the pregnancy at all in their termination conversation.
My biggest concern is that they told my husband that they could not afford to employ him any longer and that they were letting him go due to lack of work. Even though 6 weeks earlier he was working overtime.
My husband is 53, was 52 at time of termination. The Bank, which still owns the business, did not offer severance because ACS became my husbands employer. The bank has the pension plan, which had my husband been on the bank payroll at the 25 year mark, he would have been able to receive a much higher pension.
Anyway, what the heck can we do to resolve this? Most everyone that has been terminated has been over 40, but they are doing it in increments. They are letting people go a couple at time and waiting months in-between.
