Source-linked country record
Layoffs in China
This page lists every layoff entry we hold for China that still links to its original source. It is a record of what we have verified, not a complete count of layoffs in this country.
11 recorded entries
16,190 jobs across 11 employers
Covering 2016 to 2026
Counted by where the jobs were located. The tracker's own results list additionally matches on employer headquarters, so it returns a slightly higher count for the same country. Rollup records and the per-site notices they absorb are counted once. Open this filter in the full tracker.
Definitions differ by jurisdiction: see what qualifies as a record for China before comparing this page’s totals with another country’s.

Layoffs in China. AI Layoff Tracker, AskTheRecruiter.com. Accessed Aug 22, 2026. https://asktherecruiter.com/blog/country-layoffs/china/ Licensed CC BY 4.0; every entry links to the filing, notice or report behind it.Email digest
This page is one slice of a layoff record we keep and check. A plain email summary of what changed on these trackers: headline numbers, the largest new entries, and links to the sources. You confirm your address by clicking a link we email you, and one click unsubscribes. Already subscribed? Use this form to change what you get. The boxes replace what you had.
Our mail provider records whether you open an email and which links you follow, including the confirmation email, which is measured before you have agreed to anything. Unsubscribing stops the sending and the recording together.
You can read every past edition first. Each one is kept permanently, exactly as it was sent.
Privacy note: what we store and how to erase it
What we store: your email address, the choices above, and timestamps (signed up, confirmed, last sent). Nothing else about you.
What our mail provider records: whether you opened an email and which links you followed, tied to your address. That is Brevo, the service that delivers these emails, and it works by adding a small invisible image and by routing links through its own address. We read it to see which sections people use. Unsubscribing stops the sending and the measuring at the same time, and erasing your row removes it from our side.
The confirmation email is measured too: the same invisible image is in the one message that asks your permission. If you open it, Brevo records that against your address before you have agreed to anything, and it records it even if you then never confirm. We would exempt that message if we could. Brevo offers no way to switch its measuring off for a single email, and the one setting that exists covers every email we send or none of them. If you would rather not be measured at all, do not open it. Nothing else is ever sent to an unconfirmed address, and the signup is deleted from our side after 30 days.
About the links: links in the digest pass through a counter on this site that adds 1 to a total for that link and sends you straight on. It records no identifier, no IP address and no browser details, so it counts how many times a link was followed and can never say who followed it.
What it is used for: sending you exactly the emails you ticked, nothing else. The address is never shared, sold, or used for any other purpose.
How to erase it: click the unsubscribe link in any email. That stops all sending immediately, and unsubscribed addresses, along with signups that were never confirmed, are hard-deleted automatically after 30 days. You can also ask via the contact page.
