How South Carolina publishes its notices

The South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce posts layoff notification reports on SC Works. Each row gives the employer, a place, the worker count and the notice date. The reports carry no effective date, no closure or layoff type and no industry.

Three of the 2026 notices name no city. Across all years, 9 rows came without a readable notice date, and one row appeared twice; we count it once. Every 2026 notice prints its worker count. We last read the reports on November 10, 2026, and the newest notice in them is The Westin Hilton Head filing of November 3.

The 603 South Carolina notices since 2013 are on the South Carolina page, newest first.
