If you were laid off in North Carolina

Coverage: 63 North Carolina notices on file, filed Jan 7, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026, collected daily from the state’s published WARN record (files.nc.gov). A state may publish late or leave out worker counts, so this is a floor rather than a count of every layoff. The WARN Act generally applies to employers with 100 or more workers. See the national tracker for how we collect notices.
