If you were laid off in Louisiana

Coverage: 31 Louisiana notices on file, filed May 15, 2025 to Oct 31, 2026, collected daily from the state’s published layoff record (www.laworks.net). 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.
