layoff-data

Tech layoff data: companies, layoff events and the press articles they come from, one JSON file per company. It powers layoffmap.com. We list layoffs of more than 100 people.

Every merged pull request is published to the site automatically. Want to add a layoff, fix a number or report a broken link? See CONTRIBUTING.md, or open an issue.

Layout

companies/<company>.json   a company and all its layoff events, newest first
icons/<company>.<ext>      the company's icon
trusted-domains.json       press outlets the site marks as trusted
rejected.json              imported events that were turned down (never re-added)
schema/*.schema.json       JSON Schema of each file (generated)
scripts/validate.mjs       the pull request check (`npm ci && npm run validate`)

<company> is the slug used in the site's links (/companies/<company>), so file names never change. Each event keeps its id, which is its page on the site (/events/<id>).

Where the data comes from

Every event cites press coverage: news articles about the layoff, not the company's own site, filings or posts. Events are never estimated or made up.

  • "dataset": "ai-layoffs-index": from the AI Layoffs Index, used under its license, which asks for attribution to the AI Layoffs Index and to each event's sources.
  • "dataset": "curated": researched by the maintainers from the linked articles.
  • No dataset: added by contributors, or part of the 2022 to 2024 historical set compiled with reference to layoffs.fyi (data free to use with attribution to layoffs.fyi).

License

Records from the AI Layoffs Index keep their own terms. See LICENSE.
