All data on this site is sourced from official WARN Act filings published by state workforce agencies. Filings are updated regularly but may not reflect same-day submissions. Coverage varies by state.

Notice period on these filings

Across 26 filings where both a notice date and a layoff date are published, the median gap was 61 days. 8 of 26 (31 percent) fell short of the 60 days the WARN Act requires.

Notice length matters when a severance agreement lands, because most agreements ask you to waive WARN claims. How the notice period changes what severance is worth.

Still employed and expecting a cut?

Severance is negotiable more often than people assume, and the leverage is largest before a notice lands. Financial Samurai's How To Engineer Your Layoff walks through how those conversations actually go, with real severance examples.
