What is LayoffAlert?

LayoffAlert monitors public filings and company announcements to identify when large-scale layoffs are likely to occur, aiming to give workers 60+ days' advance notice. The tool analyses regulatory documents, news reports, and corporate signals to flag companies planning significant workforce reductions. This is useful for employees who want time to explore new opportunities, update their CV, or secure another job before redundancy becomes official. Rather than waiting for a sudden announcement, users receive early warnings that help them take control of their career trajectory.
