South Carolina has expanded 'mini-WARN' requirements with lower thresholds than the federal standard. All data on this page is sourced from official filings published by the South Carolina DEW. Filings through Oct 15, 2026. View source data at South Carolina DEW →
South Carolina has no separate state layoff notice statute. Employers here follow the federal WARN Act, which sets the floor in every state.
Federal WARN requires 60 days written notice before a covered plant closing or mass layoff, and reaches employers with 100 or more employees.
Because South Carolina adds no state requirement, a layoff below those thresholds can be entirely lawful with no notice at all, and will not appear in the filings on this page. What WARN does not cover.
