covering verified job cuts worldwide across all industries and causes. It flags which layoffs companies explicitly attribute to AI or automation. Every entry links to a primary source: a SEC 8-K filing, a US state WARN notice, or a named news outlet with the exact quote.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>How many layoffs have there been in 2026 so far?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>So far in 2026 the tracker holds 3,218 verified layoff events totaling 849,978 job cuts worldwide. Companies explicitly blamed AI for 128,272 of those cuts. Totals update daily as new filings and reports are verified.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>Where does the layoff data come from?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>Four kinds of sources. SEC 8-K filings, searched twice daily. Official WARN notices from 47 US states, imported daily with no AI processing. The European Restructuring Monitor, which is Eurofound&#039;s official per-company database of announced restructuring across the EU27, Norway and historically the UK (imported daily and credited to Eurofound; because these are announcement-stage figures, they feed the separately labeled &quot;Announced&quot; tier and never the verified totals). And worldwide press coverage in 65+ languages through the GDELT news index plus NewsAPI. The dataset spans 2015 to the present across 48 countries, 45,136 events in total.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>How is this different from the Challenger report or the WSJ and TrueUp layoff trackers?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>Announcement surveys count corporate intentions on the day of the announcement. This job layoff tracker counts what has a verifiable document or quoted primary source behind it, so it is a documented floor rather than an estimate. Announcement-stage cuts are also tracked, but in a separately labeled tier that is never mixed into the verified totals.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>Can journalists and researchers use this data?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>Yes, free with attribution to asktherecruiter.com (CC BY 4.0). Filtered or full CSV and JSON downloads are on the page, and a public REST API serves the same data.

News and SEC filings are collected twice daily (morning and after US market close, ET); official WARN notices and Eurofound ERM records import daily; the daily summary, stats, charts and table read live data on every page load; and the US Challenger comparison updates automatically each month when their report publishes. The Tracker Health page shows every collector&#039;s latest run in real time.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>What is the difference between &quot;verified&quot; and &quot;announced&quot; job cuts?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>Verified cuts have a filing or independently reported source behind them: a WARN notice, an SEC filing, or a named outlet&#039;s report of cuts taking place. Announced cuts are company plans reported at announcement stage, tracked in their own labeled tier and never mixed into the verified totals, because announced plans can shrink, stretch over years, or partially happen through attrition.<\/p><\/div>\n        <\/details>\n                <details class=\"alt-faq-item\">\n            <summary>How do I report an error?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"alt-method-body\"><p>Use the contact page or email info@asktherecruiter.com and corrections get priority.

A later filing or report is linked or merged when confidently matched; an unmatched announcement is <b>not<\/b> a claim that cuts remain unexecuted. Announced cuts are not counted in Verified or AI-attributed totals, so the cards do not double-count.<\/p>\n            <p><b>Geography in the cards.<\/b> Country and US-state filters describe the documented location of affected jobs, not an employer's headquarters or every place it operates. A national announcement without a source-supported job-location state remains state-unspecified rather than being assigned to a state by inference.<\/p>\n            <p><b>What this is.<\/b> A continuously updated, source-linked database of publicly reported layoffs worldwide. It records the source, evidence quote, event status and revision history so every figure can be independently checked. It is not a claim of complete coverage in every country.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>Where the data comes from.<\/b> Sources are always labeled on the entry:\n            <span class=\"alt-badge alt-badge-gold\">SEC filing<\/span> legal 8-K and 6-K filings pulled from SEC EDGAR full-text search (strongest evidence; US public companies and foreign private issuers that file with the SEC).\n            <span class=\"alt-badge alt-badge-warn\">WARN notice<\/span> state government mass-layoff filings from 42 covered US states.\n            <span class=\"alt-badge alt-badge-silver\">Company statement<\/span> reviewed investor-relations and newsroom feeds.\n            <span class=\"alt-badge alt-badge-bronze\">News<\/span> named reports discovered through GDELT and NewsAPI, then retained only when the record has usable evidence. Eurofound ERM is a separately labeled, thresholded European announcement source.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>How often it updates.<\/b> News and SEC filings: twice daily (morning and after US market close, ET). WARN notices: daily at 11 AM ET, sweeping every covered state. An automated anomaly review runs daily at noon ET, flagging statistically unusual entries (very large single notices, same company filing in several states, weak source links) for human inspection before anyone else finds them.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>How entries are extracted and checked.<\/b> Discovery searches a dialect-aware vocabulary (layoffs, redundancies, retrenchment, dismissals, sackings, workforce reduction and more than thirty other phrasings) across GDELT's 65-language translated index, so coverage that never uses the word \"layoff\" still surfaces. News and filings are machine-extracted; core facts must appear in the source text. Counts parse conservatively (ranges resolve to the lower bound). Countries and industries normalize through fixed vocabularies; implausible values are rejected. New records carry an evidence confidence and publication status. Exact fingerprints, same-company guards and cross-source comparison prevent double counting; uncertain candidates remain provisional instead of silently inflating verified totals. WARN filings skip the language model and remain exempt from fuzzy dedup because one employer can legally file several distinct notices.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>How the AI tag works.<\/b> We distinguish AI as a <em>primary cause<\/em>, a contributing cause, a selection\/operations tool, background context, and an explicit denial. Only primary or contributing cause classifications may be AI-attributed, and each must carry an exact supporting quote found in the source text. AI investment, future automation projections, and AI used to select workers do not qualify by themselves. Alongside the strict tag we also maintain a separately labeled <b>AI-linked, broad (Challenger-style)<\/b> measure that counts loose attributions the way Challenger and layoffs.fyi do &mdash; cuts made while funding an AI pivot, AI-driven market disruption, and press AI framing. The broad measure appears only on the US comparison charts and in the <code>ai_broad_jobs<\/code> API field; it is never mixed into the strict verified-AI totals.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>Coverage and honest limitations.<\/b> US depth is greatest because of WARN and SEC sources. Europe has structured coverage of large announcements through Eurofound ERM. Outside those live collectors, country-level coverage is currently worldwide news discovery and any explicitly reviewed company newsroom feed; named filing systems such as SEDAR+, RNS, ASX, TDnet and HKEXnews are research candidates, not silently assumed feeds. WARN and ERM have their own thresholds and geography rules, so they should not be summed as if they were a complete national census. Multi-state and multi-country events can overlap; the entry and source fields disclose that risk. Entries dated in the future are announced or filed but not yet completed.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>What we exclude.<\/b> Rumored or unsourced layoffs; layoffs with no stated job count; forward-looking projections (e.g. \"could cost X jobs by 2050\") rather than announced or executed cuts; and retrospective summary articles that would double-count events already tracked.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>Why our totals differ from other headline numbers.<\/b> Three kinds of trackers measure three different things. Government statistics (BLS) count <em>every<\/em> separation in the economy, millions per month, with no event-level detail. Announcement surveys (Challenger, Gray &amp; Christmas; the WSJ and TrueUp trackers) count corporate <em>intentions<\/em>: when a CEO announces \"20,000 cuts over the next two years,\" the full 20,000 lands in their total that day, even though much of it may come through attrition, get scaled back, or never produce a single filing. This tracker counts only what has a <em>verifiable document or quoted primary source behind it<\/em>: the WARN notices and SEC filings that appear as those 20,000 cuts actually execute, plus reported cuts with a named-outlet source. A worked example: in the first half of 2026, announcement surveys reported roughly 443,600 US job cuts (Challenger, through June); verified filings and sourced reports here totaled <span id=\"alt-worked-ours\">about 175,000<\/span> for the same period, both correct answers to different questions. Theirs answers \"what are companies saying?\" Ours answers \"what can you prove?\" Treat our verified figure as a documented floor: smaller than the estimates, but every single number is clickable back to a legal filing or named outlet. Since July 2026 we also track <em>announcement-stage<\/em> cuts as their own labeled tier (\"Announced\", tagged in the table and shown as a separate headline number) so both questions are answered on one page, and unlike the announcement surveys, every announcement here links to its source too.<\/p>\n\n            <p><b>Using the data.<\/b> Free with attribution to <b>asktherecruiter.com<\/b>.

They are therefore not a like-for-like Challenger total. This is a transparent coverage comparison, not an accuracy score and not a command to change our totals. Two labeled pairs are compared, each updated automatically when Challenger publishes its monthly report: <b>Challenger AI cuts vs AskTheRecruiter announced AI cuts (strict)<\/b>, and <b>Challenger all announced cuts vs AskTheRecruiter announced US cuts<\/b>. The strict AskTheRecruiter figures include only canonical events with a source-evidenced announcement date, a US-based employer and announcement-stage status (plus AI as the primary stated cause for the AI pair). The wider job-location\/any-AI figure is diagnostic only and is not comparable to Challenger.<\/p>\n            <p><b>The teal \"AI-linked, broad (Challenger-style)\" line<\/b> measures AI the way Challenger and layoffs.fyi do: it adds events where the company or press tied the cuts to AI loosely, including layoffs made while funding an AI pivot and AI-driven market disruption. Our strict AI tag (the employer's own words, quote on file) stays separate and unchanged; the broad line exists so the two counting philosophies can be compared side by side on the same chart.<\/p>\n                                    <div class=\"alt-challenger-chart\">\n                <canvas id=\"alt-chart-challenger-monthly\" data-points=\"[{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-01&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:7624,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:7624,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:108435,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:null,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:0,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:0},{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-02&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:4680,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:12304,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:48307,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:null,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:0,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:0},{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-03&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:15341,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:27645,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:60620,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:null,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:0,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:0},{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-04&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:21490,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:49135,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:83387,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:300749,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:0,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:0},{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-05&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:38579,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:87714,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:97006,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:397755,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:700,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:700},{&quot;period&quot;:&quot;2026-06&quot;,&quot;challenger_month&quot;:14029,&quot;tracker_month&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_ytd&quot;:101743,&quot;tracker_ytd&quot;:0,&quot;challenger_total_month&quot;:45849,&quot;challenger_total_ytd&quot;:443604,&quot;tracker_all_month&quot;:0,&quot;tracker_all_ytd&quot;:700}]\" aria-label=\"Monthly Challenger and strict tracker AI-announcement comparison\"><\/canvas>\n            <\/div>\n            <p class=\"alt-muted\">Monthly, source-linked announcement figures.

Only articles from an editorially maintained trusted-outlet list are ingested, and that list is also public in the repository.<\/p>\n            <p><b>What the AI does and does not do.<\/b> WARN and ERM records are imported with <em>no AI processing<\/em>, because they are already structured. For press articles, the DeepSeek-V3 model reads the article text and extracts the company, the count, the date, the country, and any explicit AI attribution. Countries and industries then normalize through fixed vocabularies, counts and dates pass hard validation rules, and duplicates are checked against the existing data. A second, independent model pass audits classifications every day, and a full-dataset audit runs monthly. Label corrections apply only when two independent passes agree. Numeric changes and removals always require a human. Every correction discloses itself in the log below.<\/p>\n            <p><b>Why 41 US states and not 50.<\/b> All 50 states appear in the tracker through SEC filings and news, but WARN <em>notices<\/em> come from 41 states because that is how many publish usable per-notice data. The rest cannot be included through no fault of ours: Hawaii and Oklahoma publish WARN notices without headcounts, and Missouri and New Mexico publish nothing citable at the notice level. 41 is the ceiling of what US states actually make public, and we are at it.<\/p>\n            <p><b>Why the country count grows over time.<\/b> The number of countries is not a setting we can raise; it reflects where large, press-covered layoffs have actually happened in our window. GDELT already searches every country on earth in 65+ languages, so a country appears the moment a credible outlet there covers a qualifying layoff. As events occur and as we add more trusted local outlets (the list grew from 106 to 153 in July 2026), the count rises on its own. This is honest by design: we show the countries where verifiable events exist, not a padded list.<\/p>\n            <p><b>Known gaps, stated plainly.<\/b> We do not yet operate direct connectors for Canada SEDAR+, UK RNS, ASX, TDnet\/EDINET, NSE\/BSE, HKEXnews, SGXNet, SENS, DART or TASE; they are maintained as official-source research candidates and will be named as live only after a stable public interface, tests and source-health monitoring exist. A few countries also publish official per-company redundancy records we do not ingest yet, including Belgium's FPS Employment collective-dismissal reports, Italy's weekly CIGS decree lists, and Sweden's varsel statistics. Most countries, including Germany and Mexico, treat employer identity in redundancy filings as confidential, so press coverage through GDELT in local languages is the primary source there. Events too small for any press coverage, any WARN threshold, or the ERM threshold of 100 jobs will not appear in any tracker, including this one.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"alt-methodology\">\n        <summary>Data notes &amp; corrections log<\/summary>\n        <div class=\"alt-method-body\">\n            <p>Errors are corrected openly, not silently.
