The UnityPoint Health notice in West Des Moines takes effect on February 28, 2027. ## How Iowa publishes its notices [Iowa Workforce Development](https://workforce.iowa.gov/employers/business-resources/warn) posts each notice with its type, a city, a county and an industry. No 2026 notice leaves the worker count blank. The type column needs a careful read. An amended notice is its own row, and the Ryder Systems Inc. and Wells Fargo rows in the table above are both amendments that add employees. If you total workers for one employer, check its amendment rows first so you know what each one adds or changes. The state also writes the same type two ways, with and without a space before the dash. We read the state's page on November 10, 2026, and its newest notice was dated November 3, 2026. Each amendment is a row of its own on the [Iowa WARN list](https://specstream.ai/data/layoffs/state/iowa?utm_source=blog&utm_campaign=warn-2026), with the 444 notices it sits among. ## More from the blog [Every post](https://specstream.ai/blog.md) [![Alabama WARN notices 2026: 31 layoffs, 2,717 workers so far](https://specstream.ai/blog/covers/alabama-warn-layoff-notices-2026.jpg) ### Alabama WARN notices 2026: 31 layoffs, 2,717 workers so far Alabama has 31 WARN notices for 2,717 workers in 2026, the latest filed November 2 Nov 10, 2026 · SpecStream · 3 min read](https://specstream.ai/blog/alabama-warn-layoff-notices-2026.md)[![Arizona WARN notices 2026: 50 layoffs, 4,930 workers so far](https://specstream.ai/blog/covers/arizona-warn-layoff-notices-2026.jpg) ### Arizona WARN notices 2026: 50 layoffs, 4,930 workers so far Arizona has 50 WARN notices for 4,930 workers in 2026, the latest filed October 29 Nov 10, 2026 · SpecStream · 3 min read](https://specstream.ai/blog/arizona-warn-layoff-notices-2026.md)[![California WARN notices 2026: 1,241 layoffs, 68,459 workers](https://specstream.ai/blog/covers/california-warn-layoff-notices-2026.jpg) ### California WARN notices 2026: 1,241 layoffs, 68,459 workers California logged 1,241 WARN notices for 68,459 workers through November 4, 2026 Nov 10, 2026 · SpecStream · 3 min read](https://specstream.ai/blog/california-warn-layoff-notices-2026.md)
