Bergen County Company To Lay Off Dozens By September

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — The Saddle Brook location of an international company plans to lay off nearly 70 employees by mid-September, they said in a notice to the state of New Jersey.

Digital Room LLC will lay off or relocate 69 people by Sept. 16, says their recent Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification — a form that large companies must file in advance of mass layoffs.

The digital marketing company has 11 locations in the United States and the Philippines and more than 1,800 employees, its website says.

While the WARN notice says they plan to lay off 69 people, other companies in North Jersey have filed such notices and then said they planned to relocate some of theiworkers.
