Maryland WARN Act Notices

Maryland has 629 WARN Act notices on file, affecting a total of 61,606 workers. The average notice affects 98 workers.

PlainLayoffs records a 50-worker state threshold for Maryland. Federal WARN eligibility is not a single headcount: employer size, the site, the affected full-time workforce, timing, and exceptions also matter. Check the state workforce agency for the rule that applies to a specific event.

Maryland's listed threshold is 50 workers. State notice rules can be broader than federal WARN and can add their own coverage, timing, or exception rules. Confirm the current rule with Maryland's workforce agency before relying on a filing for legal eligibility.

A WARN filing does not by itself establish a right to 60 days of notice. Federal WARN generally requires 60 calendar days of written notice for covered employers and covered events, subject to threshold rules and exceptions. Check the facts of the employer, site, and event with Maryland's workforce agency or a qualified adviser; the filing can help you identify the relevant rapid-response and benefits resources.

This page is compiled from publicly available notices published by state workforce agencies. Federal WARN can require notice to a state dislocated-worker unit for covered employers and covered events; publication practices and state mini-WARN rules vary, so this database is not a complete census of every layoff.
