DigestsMonthly
Two lenses on the same calendar month. What was announced this month, and which jobs ended this month.
In December 2006, employers announced 56 layoff notices affecting 8,147 workers across 10 states in the USA, down 45% from November 2006. Separately, 6,886 jobs ended in December 2006.
How to read these numbers
Filed this month counts notices by the date they were announced. Jobs ending this month counts layoffs by the date workers actually leave. The two halves rarely match, because notices are published before the layoffs they describe take effect. Federal WARN generally requires 60 days' advance notice for covered events, but requirements, exceptions, and the dates in individual records vary.
