Review unemployment benefits, health coverage and local job-center support.

About This Data

Data on this site comes from WARN Act filings published by state workforce agencies. Where a state does not publish a usable list, filings come from a third-party compilation and are marked on each row. Filings are updated regularly but may not reflect same-day submissions. Coverage varies by state.

Those figures cannot be reconciled with a headline alone. Use the individual source records above to check locations and dates; filings can include amendments and do not prove that all announced layoffs occurred.

Recorded dates on these filings

Across 9 filings with usable paired dates, the median recorded gap is 60 days. This is date arithmetic, not a finding about notice received by workers or legal compliance. Source definitions, coverage and exceptions matter.

What to check in your own notice and severance agreement.

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.
