MASS LAYOFFS — NOVEMBER 2011
Employers took 1,331 mass layoff actions in November involving 129,887 workers, seasonally adjusted,
as measured by new filings for unemployment insurance benefits during the month, the U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics reported today. Each mass layoff involved at least 50 workers from a single employer.
The number of mass layoff events in November decreased by 22 from October, while the number of
associated initial claims increased by 11,198. In November, 322 mass layoff events were reported in the
manufacturing sector, seasonally adjusted, resulting in 36,343 initial claims. (See table 1.)

Unemployment rate
The national unemployment rate was 8.6 percent in November, down from 9.0 percent the prior month
and from 9.8 percent a year earlier. In November, total nonfarm payroll employment increased by
120,000 over the month and by 1,600,000 over the year.
Industry Distribution (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
The number of mass layoff events in November was 1,393, not seasonally adjusted, resulting in 127,750
initial claims for unemployment insurance. (See table 2.) Over the year, the number of average weekly
mass layoff events decreased by 71 to 348, and associated average weekly initial claims decreased by
7,574 to 31,938. Thirteen of the 19 major industry sectors in the private economy reported over-the-year
decreases in average weekly initial claims, with the largest decreases occurring in information,
construction, and administrative and waste services. (See table 3.) The six-digit industry with the largest

number of private nonfarm initial claims in November 2011 was highway, street, and bridge
construction. (See table A.)
The manufacturing sector accounted for 25 percent of all mass layoff events and 30 percent of initial
claims filed in November. A year earlier, manufacturing made up 23 percent of events and 26 percent of
initial claims. Within this sector, the numbers of mass layoff claimants in November 2011 was greatest
in the transportation equipment, food, and machinery subsectors. Fifteen of the 21 manufacturing
subsectors experienced over-the-year decreases in average weekly initial claims, with the largest
decrease occurring in electrical equipment and appliances. (See table 3.)
Geographic Distribution (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Among the census regions, the Midwest registered the greatest numbers of initial claims in November.
Three of the 4 regions experienced over-the-year decreases in average weekly initial claims, with the
largest decline occurring in the West. (See table 4.)
Among the states, California recorded the highest number of mass layoff initial claims in November,
followed by Wisconsin, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. Thirty-three states and the District of
Columbia experienced over-the-year declines in average weekly initial claims, led by California and
North Carolina. (See table 4.)
Note
The monthly data series in this release cover mass layoffs of 50 or more workers beginning in a given
month, regardless of the duration of the layoffs. For private nonfarm establishments, information on the
length of the layoff is obtained later and issued in a quarterly release that reports on mass layoffs lasting
more than 30 days (referred to as "extended mass layoffs"). The quarterly release provides more
information on the industry classification and location of the establishment and on the demographics of
-2-
the laid-off workers. The monthly data series in this release are subjected to average weekly analysis,
which mitigates the effect of differing lengths of months. See the Technical Note for more detailed
definitions and for a description of average weekly analysis.
____________
The Mass Layoffs news release for December 2011 and Annual Totals for 2011 is scheduled to be
released on Wednesday, January 25, 2012, at 10:00 a.m. (EST).
Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Mass Layoff Data
In accordance with usual practice, the release of mass layoff data for December 2011,
scheduled for January 25, 2012, will incorporate annual updating of seasonal adjustment
factors. Seasonally adjusted estimates back to January 2007 are subject to revision.
Upcoming Changes to Mass Layoff Data
With the release of January 2012 data on February 23, 2012, the Mass Layoff Statistics
program will update the basis for industry classification from the 2007 North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS) to the 2012 NAICS. The new classification reflects
definitional changes within construction, manufacturing, and wholesale trade. Several industry
codes, titles, and descriptions will also be updated. For more information on the 2012 NAICS
update, visit www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html.

Technical Note
The Mass Layoff Statistics (MLS) program is a federalstate program that uses a standardized automated approach to
identifying, describing, and tracking the effects of major job
cutbacks, using data from each state's unemployment
insurance database. Each month, states report on employers
which have at least 50 initial claims filed against them during
a consecutive 5-week period. These employers then are
contacted by the state agency to determine whether these
separations lasted 31 days or longer, and, if so, other
information concerning the layoff is collected. States report
on layoffs lasting more than 1 month on a quarterly basis.
A given month contains an aggregation of the weekly
unemployment insurance claims filings for the Sunday
through Saturday weeks in that month. All weeks are
included for the particular month, except if the first day of the
month falls on Saturday. In this case, the week is included in
the prior month's tabulations. This means that some months
will contain 4 weeks and others, 5 weeks. The number of
weeks in a given month may be different from year to year,
and the number of weeks in a year may vary. Therefore,
analysis of over-the-month and over-the-year change in not
seasonally adjusted series should take this calendar effect into
consideration.
The MLS program resumed operations in April 1995
after it had been terminated in November 1992 due to lack of
funding. Prior to April 1995, monthly layoff statistics were
not available.
Information in this release will be made available to
sensory impaired individuals upon request. Voice phone:
(202) 691-5200; Federal Relay Service: (800) 877-8339
Definitions
Employer. Employers in the MLS program include
those covered by state unemployment insurance laws.
Information on employers is obtained from the Quarterly
Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) program, which
is administered by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
Industry. Employers are classified according to the 2007
version of the North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS). For temporary help and professional employer
organization industries, monthly MLS-related statistics
generally reflect layoffs related to underlying client
companies in other industries. An individual layoff action at a
client company can be small, but when initial claimants
associated with many such layoffs are assigned to a temporary help or professional employer organization firm, a
mass layoff event may trigger.
Initial claimant. A person who files any notice of unemployment to initiate a request either for a determination of
entitlement to and eligibility for compensation, or for a
subsequent period of unemployment within a benefit year or
period of eligibility.
Mass layoff event. Fifty or more initial claims for
unemployment insurance benefits filed against an employer
during a 5-week period, regardless of duration.
Seasonal adjustment
Effective with the release of data for January 2005, BLS
began publishing six seasonally adjusted monthly MLS
series. The six series are the numbers of mass layoff events
and mass layoff initial claims for the total, private nonfarm,
and manufacturing sectors.
Seasonal adjustment is the process of estimating and
removing the effect on time series data of regularly recurring
seasonal events such as changes in the weather, holidays, and
the beginning and ending of the school year. The use of
seasonal adjustment makes it easier to observe fundamental
changes in time series, particularly those associated with
general economic expansions and contractions.
The MLS data are seasonally adjusted using the X-12ARIMA seasonal adjustment method on a concurrent basis.
Concurrent seasonal adjustment uses all available monthly
estimates, including those for the current month, in developing seasonal adjustment factors. Revisions to the most
recent 5 years of seasonally adjusted data will be made once a
year with the issuance of December data. Before the data are
seasonally adjusted, prior adjustments are made to the
original data to adjust them for differences in the number of
weeks used to calculate the monthly data. Because weekly
unemployment insurance claims are aggregated to form
monthly data, a particular month's value could be calculated
with 5 weeks of data in 1 year and 4 weeks in another. The
effects of these differences could seriously distort the
seasonal factors if they were ignored in the seasonal
adjustment process. These effects are modeled in the X-12ARIMA program and are permanently removed from the
final seasonally adjusted series.
