Workers across 48 US states can now access a centralized database tracking over 10,000 employer layoff filings affecting more than 2 million employees, with automated alerts delivering advance notice directly to subscribers when their company submits official termination paperwork.
-- LayoffAlert.org has announced the launch of its daily alerts designed to help workers spot layoff risk earlier by notifying them when employers file official layoff notices in 13 U.S. states. The service is built around a simple idea: when a filing becomes public, employees should not have to hunt through scattered state websites to find it.
More information is available at https://layoffalert.org/.
Under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, covered employers must generally provide 60 days’ advance notice before certain plant closings or mass layoffs. In practice, that notice often appears first as a document filed with a state labor department. While these filings are public records, they are typically posted in different formats, on different sites, and with different naming conventions. As a result, workers can miss the earliest signals—learning about a job loss only when rumors spread internally or when an employer makes a formal announcement, leaving limited time to plan finances, evaluate options, or seek advice.
LayoffAlert.org aims to close that gap by collecting WARN notices from state labor departments and delivering updates through web and email alerts. Subscribers can request company-specific monitoring by entering an email address and an employer name, then receive a notification if a WARN notice is filed. The database is updated daily with new filings, keeping layoff activity current across the states the platform covers.
A spokesperson for LayoffAlert.org said, “We aggregate WARN notices from state labor departments across the United States into a single searchable database to help workers stay informed about layoffs.” For employees, earlier visibility can translate into practical steps taken sooner: reviewing severance terms, documenting employment details, checking eligibility for benefits, and beginning a job search while paychecks and health coverage may still be in place.
The platform also points affected workers toward legal professionals who focus on severance negotiations and WARN Act compliance issues, along with job-hunting and resume-building resources intended to support career transition. Visitors can search by company name, browse by state, or review recent notices to track the latest filings without needing to navigate multiple government portals.
