What the 2013 WARN Record Shows
In 2013, employers filed 154 WARN Act notices in this dataset, reporting 18,692 affected workers across 136 employers and 13 sectors.
Apr was the heaviest month, with 4,642 workers (25% of the 2013 total). Against 2012, workers affected fell 11%. That makes 2013 the 13th-largest of the 19 years on record. Boeing alone accounts for 12% of the year's affected workers. Other Services led sector totals at 47% of 2013 workers, ahead of Manufacturing. IN led the geography at 7,854 workers (42% of 2013), ahead of VA, so one state shapes the annual map. That flips the prior-year geographic lead: 2012 was headed by VA, while 2013 is headed by IN. The single largest 2013 filing was Lilly USA in Indianapolis, IN at 1,624 workers (9% of the year), noticed 2013-04-26 with an effective date of 2013-07-15.
Closest years by workers affected: 2018 (18,619 workers, 0% lower); 2016 (18,265 workers, 2% lower); 2009 (19,166 workers, 3% higher); 2014 (17,813 workers, 5% lower).
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, 2013 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.

Does the WARN Act data capture all layoffs in 2013? ▼
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.
