If your employer filed a WARN notice in Maine, you are entitled to 60 days advance written notice before your last day. During the notice period, you remain employed with regular pay and benefits. If your employer gave less than 60 days notice, you may be entitled to back pay and benefits for each day of the shortfall. After your last day, file for unemployment insurance with the Maine Dept of Labor as soon as possible. Review your COBRA options to continue health coverage for up to 18 months. Visit your local America's Job Center for free career counseling, resume help, and retraining vouchers. Ask specifically about Rapid Response services, which are designed for WARN-affected workers.

Maine has its own layoff notice law on top of the federal WARN Act, the Maine Severance Pay Act. An employer has to satisfy both, so the stricter rule is the one that applies to you.
Maine requires 90 days notice for a closing or relocation rather than the federal 60, and requires severance pay of one week per year of service to employees with at least 3 years of service, which federal WARN does not.
Federal WARN, for comparison, covers employers with 100 or more employees and requires 60 days notice.
