For Workers Facing a Layoff
If you've been laid off through no fault of your own (or have been notified by your employer that a layoff is coming), are eligible to receive unemployment insurance benefits, and are unlikely to return to your previous occupation or industry, our programs can help.
Through CareerForce, we offer a variety of services that focus on preparing you to find a suitable new job at comparable wages.
Layoffs are always challenging for workers and employers. Through our Dislocated Worker Program, we help them both.
If you're a worker who has been laid off (or notified that a layoff is coming) through no fault of your own, we offer services at no cost that focus on preparing you to find a suitable new job.
If you're an employer facing a plant shutdown or large-scale layoff, we can help you proceed in an orderly and legal way and provide on-site services for your workers.
