Kentucky layoffs by industry

Kentucky layoffs by county and city

Each county and city page shows its layoff notices next to local unemployment, open jobs, the largest employers, colleges, the workforce board and job centers.

The public workforce boards serving the areas in these notices. Their American Job Centers offer free help with job search, training and filing for benefits.

If you were laid off in Kentucky

Coverage: 78 Kentucky notices on file, filed May 6, 2025 to Oct 29, 2026, collected daily from the state’s published layoff record (kyworks.ky.gov, kyworks.ky.gov). 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.
