Maryland WARN notices 2026: all 108 layoffs as a list you can sort

Maryland publishes every layoff notice it gets on one web page. It's a table, it's public, it's current, and you can't do anything with it. No sort, no filter, no download. To answer "which county lost the most jobs this year," you scroll, copy, paste into a spreadsheet, fix the columns, and do it again when the next notice lands.

So we copied three rows instead and let SpecStream read the rest. The whole list is here: all 108 notices, no account needed.

What the 108 notices say

From January 2 to October 7, 2026, Maryland received 108 WARN notices covering 7,137 workers. The typical notice is small: the median is 39 workers.

• Montgomery County leads by a distance. 29 notices and 2,305 workers, about a third of the state's total. Baltimore County is next with 12 notices and 959 workers.
• The biggest single notice is a closure. Diamond Transportation Services in Prince George's County, 571 workers, filed May 13.
• Closures are common. 42 of the 108 are plant closures; most of the rest are mass layoffs with no recall.
• Some employers file again and again. Amentum and General Dynamics Information Technology filed four notices each this year, Saks three, Leidos two.
• The busiest stretch was early. March had 18 notices, the most of any month.

The ten largest

In the full list, the type column is the state's own text, kept as it was typed: "Mass Layoff - No Recall" shows up in three spellings, and nine notices carry a note in the same cell ("Performing work at..."). A list read from a page keeps the page's words. That's the point: every row is what Maryland published, not our summary of it.

How three rows became 108

The WARN Act makes employers with 100 or more workers give 60 days' notice before a plant closing or mass layoff, and each state decides how to publish what it gets. Maryland's choice is an HTML table. That's the easy case.

Teaching SpecStream a page takes three things:

1. The page's address. One public page, up to 2 MB and 5,000 records. Pages behind a sign-in aren't opened.
2. Three to eight rows copied from it, with a header: notice date, company, location, county, employees, type. Copy each value the way the page shows it.
3. The column that names each record. Here, the company.

It reads the rest of the page into the same columns and shows you a preview before anything is saved. Teaching a page costs nothing, and neither does reading it again. When the next notice posts, read the page again and you get a new preview; the list you already have stays as it was.

The same three rows work on any page that lays its records out the same way. The FDIC's failed-bank list went the same way: three rows copied, 25 bank failures back, from Nano Banc in Irvine in September 2026 to the Farmers and Merchants State Bank of Argonia in 2017, each with city, state, closing date and the bank that took the deposits.

It's not for every state. If yours publishes WARN notices as PDFs or a spreadsheet download, this isn't the tool for that file. If it publishes a web page with a table, it is.

What to do with it

A list of layoffs is a list of people about to look for work and companies about to change shape. Recruiters call the affected employers' teams. Workforce boards plan sessions by county. Reporters track who's cutting and where. Commercial real estate brokers watch the closures.

Once the notices are a list, the rest of the workspace works on them:

• On a map by county. Placing the addresses on the map is free.
• With more facts per row. Ask for each company's website or its other locations; that part is a find, priced per match, with the price shown before it runs.
• Where you work. Send it to a Google Sheet, Airtable, HubSpot or Slack, or download CSV or Excel.

The rows above are from the state's page as read on October 15, 2026.
