Updated 2026-09-07 · recomputed on every daily refresh of the 45,775-notice archive.
The WARN Act is a law about a number of days. Every state publishes the notices; none of them publishes the number. So we compute it — for every notice in the archive, back to 1988, every day.
Ten notices dated 2024 or later, ranked by workers affected, where fewer
than 60 days separated the notice from the layoff. Every one of these rows,
with its computed notice_days, is in the free CSV below.

Of 45,775 notices in the archive, 26,003 carry both a notice date and a layoff date on or after it. Those are the only ones counted above. The rest are excluded rather than guessed at:
That exclusion list is the product. A number you cannot audit is worth nothing, and the states' own files are messier than anyone selling a layoff feed will tell you.
Free — 7,365 notices dated 2024 onward, with the
computed notice_days column, as CSV. No account, no email, no rate limit.
Free — the whole-archive summary, 356 state-year rows back to 1988: how many measurable notices each state published each year and how many of them fell under 60 days (notice_period_by_state_year.csv). Aggregate counts only, so it is free at full archive depth. The share column is left blank for any state-year with fewer than 30 measurable notices — a percentage over a handful of records reads as a fact and is not one.
$199 one-time — the full archive: all 45,775 notices back to 1988

reversed-date records so you can audit them yourself. Same file the charts above are
built from, refreshed daily for a year.

notice_days = effective_date − notice_date in calendar days, computed
per notice from the dates the state published, with no interpolation and no imputation.
Notices are counted by their own notice date, so a year's figure never moves once that
year is complete except when a state back-fills a record. Both dates ship in the
free dataset; this page adds the arithmetic, the exclusions and
the daily rebuild.
This page reports the number of calendar days between the notice date and the layoff date as published by the state. It is not a finding that any employer broke the law and it is not legal advice. The federal WARN Act applies only to covered employers and covered events, and it excuses short notice in defined circumstances — a faltering company seeking capital, business circumstances that were not reasonably foreseeable, and natural disasters. Several states also run their own notice laws with different periods. In several states the published notice date is the day the state received the filing, which can trail the day workers were told by days or weeks — so an interval a little under 60 is often state processing lag, not short notice. A short interval here is a question worth asking, not an answer.
