A plant in New Hampshire has closed without giving workers proper notice. Jesse Russell reports:

New Hampshire is stepping up to the plate for workers who have been locked out of their jobs. Precision Technology appears to have locked the workers out without providing a 60-day notice as required by federal law. One hundred thirty one workers were employed at the bulk mail distribution center in Pembroke, New Hampshire. The first workers to be notified of the plant closing were on Thursday’s second-shift. A judge in New Hampshire has blocked the company from moving out assets until workers are properly compensated. Workers have not been granted access to the facility to retrieve any personal belongings.
