Coverage: 140 Georgia notices on file, filed May 14, 2025 to Oct 30, 2026, collected daily from the state’s published layoff record (www.tcsg.edu). A state may publish late or leave out worker counts, so this is a floor rather than a count of every layoff. States generally require a notice only from employers with 100 or more workers. See the national tracker for how we collect notices.
