117
- ## A layoff record you can audit, not just download
118
-
119
- This dataset is one cut of a single daily rebuild: **61,330 US WARN Act
120
- layoff notices from 48 state agencies, 1988 to today**, one schema, no
121
- login, no delay, CC BY 4.0. Snapshot as of **2026-09-17**; the files above are
122
- rebuilt every day, so the live count is the truth.
123
-
124
- Several projects publish a current WARN scrape and two of them carry more rows
125
- than we do. None of them publish what the records **used to say**:
126
-
127
- - **617 observed changes to already-published notices, logged daily since 2026-08-31.**
128
- `data/revisions.csv` records every field that differed between two consecutive
129
- daily builds — employee counts, effective dates, notice types, company names —
130
- with the old value, the new value and the date we saw it. We publish the
131
- observation and not the cause: a change is equally explained by the agency
132
- amending the notice or by our own parser improving, and we do not guess which
133
- (see `data/revisions.README.txt`). A scrape that starts tomorrow cannot backfill
134
- any of it; it only exists if someone was watching.
135
- - **6,799 notices whose state agency page no longer lists them.** Agencies
136
- take notices down. We keep them, flagged as archive-only, so a count you ran
137
- last year still reconciles.
138
- - **Point-in-time employer identity.** The ticker crosswalk resolves a filer to
139
- the company as it existed at the time of the notice — Kmart, Sears Holdings,
140
- Symantec — not to whatever is on today's ticker file.
141
-
142
- If you have to defend a number to an editor, a referee or a compliance reviewer,
143
- that provenance layer is the part you cannot rebuild yourself.

- **Not deciding today?** [Join the update list →](https://approj.gumroad.com/subscribe) — one email when a
176
- new dataset or tier is published; nothing promotional. A state added or a column
177
- renamed ships in the [daily release](https://github.com/APVentureEngine/warn-act-notices/releases) instead, no address
178
- needed. The list is
179
- shared across APProjects datasets, holds an email address only, is run by
180

- [Watch the repo's releases](https://github.com/APVentureEngine/warn-act-notices/subscription) — GitHub notifies you on

- **Reaching a human.** WARN Feed is published by APProjects, an automated data

187

188
- [open an issue](https://github.com/APVentureEngine/warn-act-notices/issues/new/choose). Payments are handled by Gumroad as merchant of
189
- record, so an invoice can carry your company name.
