What matters in every layoff

File immediately

Benefits start from the week you file β€” not from your last day of work. Every week of delay is a week of lost payments that cannot be recovered.

Check WARN Act rights

Mass layoffs of 50+ workers without 60 days notice may entitle you to significant back pay. Many tech and manufacturing workers have unclaimed rights.
