West Virginia layoffs: how many jobs are being cut in 2026?
298 workers in West Virginia received official WARN layoff notices in the last 12 months, across 2 filings. In total the West Virginia registry holds 23 filings covering 3,140 jobs, hardest-hit in Hancock County, the most recent filed Aug 19, 2026. WARN covers larger layoffs only, so these figures are a floor, not every job lost.
West Virginia publishes no list, only a page of PDFs: a consolidated file covering 2022 to early 2025, and one scanned letter per notice since. We take the consolidated file as published and read each letter for a headcount it states in words. Where the only headcount is a scanned appendix of job titles, we record no notice rather than sum an unreliable scan, so some 2025 and 2026 notices are missing. West Virginia reports the county, not the city. Where a letter is a scan we cannot read a figure from, the notice is held in the no-headcount register with its figure shown as unpublished, rather than dropped: 19 of its notices sit there. We will not read a number off an unreliable scan. Coverage register · how we collect.

West Virginiadoes not publish a number of workers with its WARN notices. Recording them as zero would have dragged down every average on this site and printed "0 jobs" against a real layoff, so they are held here instead, counted as notices and excluded from every headcount. How we handle this.
