What the 2010 WARN Record Shows

In 2010, employers filed 96 WARN Act notices in this dataset, reporting 11,652 affected workers across 84 employers and 10 sectors.

Dec was the heaviest month, with 2,003 workers (17% of the 2010 total). Against 2009, workers affected fell 39%. That makes 2010 the 18th-largest of the 19 years on record. Boeing alone accounts for 7% of the year's affected workers. Other Services led sector totals at 33% of 2010 workers, ahead of Manufacturing. IN led the geography at 5,705 workers (49% of 2010), ahead of WA, so one state shapes the annual map. The single largest 2010 filing was AJWright in South Bend, IN at 725 workers (6% of the year), noticed 2010-12-10 with an effective date of 2011-02-08.

Closest years by workers affected: 2008 (11,199 workers, 4% lower); 2011 (17,020 workers, 46% higher); 2014 (17,813 workers, 53% higher); 2016 (18,265 workers, 57% higher).

Coverage limits, filing-year rules, and entitlements

WARN notices cover qualifying events, not every workforce reduction: federal coverage depends on the employer, worksite, event size, workforce share, timing, and exceptions, while state rules can differ. At an average of 121 workers per notice, 2010 filings concentrated in the smaller-event band, consistent with partial facility layoffs that still crossed the reporting threshold. A notice is counted in the year it was FILED, not the year separations take effect, so a December filing whose layoffs land in January still belongs here. A listed worker or filing does not by itself establish an individual entitlement; our guide explains the factors to check.

The largest individual notice filed in 2010 was AJWright (South Bend, IN) for 725 workers on 2010-12-10 (effective 2011-02-08). That is one disclosure, not AJWright's full-year total across every notice.

Does the WARN Act data capture all layoffs in 2010?

No. WARN notices cover qualifying events, not every workforce reduction. Federal coverage depends on the employer, worksite, event size, workforce share, timing, and exceptions; state rules can differ. Gradual attrition and voluntary separation programs are also not included, so actual job losses can be higher than the WARN record alone suggests.
