Major employers signal layoffs in January [View all]

Over 100 employers nationwide have filed notices announcing plans to cut jobs in January 2026, according to WARNTracker.com data. Workers across retail, manufacturing, healthcare, and technology sectors will face job losses as major names, including Amazon, FedEx, and General Motors, implement post-holiday reductions.

The filings come as businesses contend with shifting trade policies, rising labor costs, and operational restructuring. Under federal law, companies must announce mass layoffs at least 60 days before they take effect.
