Based on a survey report, in November 2025, U.S. employers announced 71,000 layoffs. This brings the cumulative number of layoffs for the year to roughly 1.17 million, marking the highest figure since 2020. In a contrasting trend, the number of initial jobless claims has plummeted to its lowest point in three years. Layoffs within the technology sector (for instance, Amazon) and the telecommunications industry (such as Verizon) have stood out prominently, acting as the primary forces propelling the expansion of the overall layoff scope.
