DigestsMonthly
Two lenses on the same calendar month. What was announced this month, and which jobs ended this month.
In November 2009, employers announced 147 layoff notices affecting 15,855 workers across 19 states in the USA, about flat. Separately, 6,971 jobs ended in November 2009.
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.
