For release 10:00 a.m. (EDT) Wednesday, August 10, 2011 USDL-11-1186 Technical information: (202) 691-6392 * mlsinfo@bls.gov * www.bls.gov/mls Media contact: (202) 691-5902 * PressOffice@bls.gov EXTENDED MASS LAYOFFS -- SECOND QUARTER 2011 (NOTE: This release was reissued on Friday, August 12, 2011, to correct separations data for Arizona, the West region, and total nonfarm sector. Corrections can be found in the text and tables A, 1, 2, 4, 5, 9, 12 and 13.) Employers in the private nonfarm sector initiated 1,624 mass layoff events in the second quarter of 2011 that resulted in the separation of 261,346 workers from their jobs for at least 31 days, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Total extended mass layoff events decreased over the year from 2,008 to 1,624, and associated worker separations fell from 381,622 to 261,346. Both events and separations have decreased over the year for seven consecutive quarters. (See table A.) Second quarter 2011 layoff data are preliminary and are subject to revision. (See the Technical Note.) Both events and separations in the manufacturing sector declined to series’ lows during the second quarter of 2011. Sixty-one percent of private nonfarm employers indicated they anticipated some type of recall--the highest second quarter percentage since 2005. The national unemployment rate averaged 8.9 percent, not seasonally adjusted, in the second quarter of 2011, down from 9.5 percent a year earlier. Private nonfarm payroll employment, not seasonally adjusted, increased by 1.7 percent (1,818,000) over the year. Industry Distribution of Extended Layoffs Over the year ending in the second quarter of 2011, the number of extended mass layoff events declined in 16 of the 18 major private nonfarm industry sectors. The manufacturing and accommodation and food services sectors experienced the largest declines in the numbers of worker separations over the year. Fourteen of the 21 manufacturing subsectors experienced over-the-year decreases in the number of layoff events. (See table 1.) Both events and separations in the manufacturing sector were at series’ lows in the second quarter of 2011. Forty-seven percent of manufacturing employers with an extended mass layoff event in the second quarter of 2011 anticipated recalling at least some of the displaced workers--the highest second quarter percentage since 1998. Construction firms had 219 extended mass layoff events and 26,806 separations, primarily due to contract completion. This sector accounted for 13 percent of the layoff events and 10 percent of the related separations in the second quarter. In these events, a second quarter series high 65 percent of the employers anticipated recalling at least some of the displaced workers. Table A.

Reasons for Extended Layoffs Layoffs due to the completion of seasonal work accounted for 43 percent of extended mass layoff events and 51 percent of related separations in the private nonfarm sector during the second quarter of 2011. Business demand factors, primarily as a result of contract completion, accounted for 30 percent of events and 26 percent of related separations during the quarter. Over the year, the largest decrease in worker separations occurred in layoffs attributed to seasonal factors. (See table 2.) Movement of Work In the second quarter of 2011, 42 extended mass layoffs involved movement of work and were associated with 6,824 worker separations, a series low for both figures. Over the year, the number of such events decreased by 14, and the number of separations decreased by 4,163. Movement of work layoffs accounted for 5 percent of total nonseasonal events during the quarter. (See table 9.) Forty-five percent of the events related to movement of work were from manufacturing industries. (See table 6.) Employers cited organizational changes as the economic reason for layoff in 43 percent of the events involving movement of work. (See table 7.) Among the four census regions, the largest proportions of workers affected by the movement of work were in the West. (See table 8.) Among states, California, Washington, Oklahoma, and Illinois reported the highest numbers of separations associated with movement of work. The 42 events with movement of work for the second quarter involved 50 identifiable relocations of work actions. (See table 9.) Employers were able to provide information on the specific number of worker separations for 25 of these actions. Among these actions, 76 percent were domestic reassignments, and 84 percent involved work moving within the same company. (See table 10.) Recall Expectations Sixty-one percent of the private nonfarm employers reporting an extended mass layoff in the second quarter indicated they anticipated some type of recall--the highest second quarter percentage since 2005. Of those employers expecting to recall workers, 45 percent indicated the offer would be extended to all displaced employees, and 82 percent of employers anticipated extending the offer to at least half of the workers. Seventy-nine percent of employers expecting to recall laid- off employees intend to do so within six months. Excluding extended mass layoff events due to seasonal work and vacation period, in which 96 percent of the employers expected a recall, employers anticipated recalling laid-off workers in 35 percent of the events. (See table 11.) Size of Extended Layoffs The average size of a layoff (as measured by the number of separations per layoff event) was 161 workers during the second quarter of 2011. (See table 12.) Events were largely concentrated at the lower end of the extended layoff-size spectrum, with 70 percent involving fewer than 150 workers. Conversely, only 5 percent of layoff events involved 500 or more workers. (See table 13.) Initial Claimant Characteristics A total of 231,643 initial claimants for unemployment insurance were associated with extended mass layoffs in the second quarter. Of these claimants, 17 percent were black, 16 percent were Hispanic, 52 percent were women, and 24 percent were 55 years of age or older. The percentage of claimants aged 55 and over reached a series high during the quarter. (See table 3.) In the entire civilian labor force for the same period, 12 percent of all persons were black, 15 percent were Hispanic, 47 percent were women, and 20 percent were 55 years of age or older. Table B.

NOTE: The geographic boundaries of the metropolitan areas shown in this table are defined in Office of Management and Budget Bulletin 10-02, December 1, 2009. Geographic Distribution Among the four census regions, the West recorded the highest number of separations due to extended mass layoff events in the second quarter of 2011. Among the nine census divisions, the highest numbers of displaced workers were in the Pacific and the East North Central. All regions and 8 of the 9 divisions registered fewer laid-off workers compared with the second quarter of 2010. (See table 4.) California recorded the largest number of worker separations in the second quarter of 2011, followed by Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York, and Ohio. Over the year, 37 states and the District of Columbia reported decreased numbers of separated workers associated with extended mass layoff events during the second quarter, led by California, New Jersey, and New York. (See table 5.) Eighty percent of the initial claimants for unemployment insurance associated with extended mass layoff events in the second quarter of 2011 resided within metropolitan areas. Among the 372 metropolitan areas, Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, Calif., reported the highest number of resident initial claimants. When compared with the second quarter of 2010, Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, Texas, entered into the highest 10 metropolitan areas in terms of initial claims by residency of claimant, replacing Sacramento--Arden-Arcade--Roseville, Calif. (See table B.) Note The quarterly series on extended mass layoffs cover layoffs of at least 31-days duration that involve 50 or more individuals from a single employer filing initial claims for unemployment insurance during a consecutive 5-week period. Approximately 30 days after a mass layoff is triggered, the employer is contacted for additional information. Data for the current quarter are preliminary and subject to revision. This release also includes revised data for previous quarters. Data are not seasonally adjusted, but survey data suggest that there is a seasonal pattern to layoffs. Thus, comparisons between consecutive quarters should not be used as an indicator of trend. For additional information about the program, see the Technical Note. ________________ The Mass Layoffs news release for July is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, August 23, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT).
Technical Note The Mass Layoff Statistics (MLS) program is a federal-state program which identifies, describes, and tracks the effects of major job cutbacks, using data from each state's unemployment insurance database. Employers which have at least 50 initial claims filed against them during a consecutive 5-week per- iod are contacted by the state agency to determine whether these separations are of at least 31 days duration, and, if so, information is obtained on the total number of persons separated and the reasons for these separations. Em- ployers are identified according to industry classification and location, and unemployment insurance claimants are identified by such demographic factors as age, race, gender, ethnic group, and place of residence. The program yields information on an individual's entire spell of unemployment, to the point when regular unemployment insurance benefits are exhausted. Definitions Domestic relocation. A movement of work from an establishment within the U.S. to a location also inside the U.S., either within the same company or to a different company altogether (domestic outsourcing). Employer. A firm covered by state unemployment insurance laws. Information on employers is obtained from the Quarterly Census ofEmployment and Wages (QCEW) program, which is administered by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Extended mass layoff event. A layoff defined by the filing of 50 or more initial claims for unemployment insurance benefits from an employer during a 5-week period, with at least 50 workers separated for more than 30 days. Such layoffs involve both persons subject to recall and those who are terminated. Initial claimant. A person who files any notice of unemployment to initiate a request either for a determination of entitlement to and eligibility for com- pensation, or for a subsequent period of unemployment within a benefit year or period of eligibility. Movement of work. The reassignment of work activities previously performed at the worksite by the company experiencing the layoff (1) to another worksite within the company; (2) to another company under formal contractual arrange- ments at the same worksite; or (3) to another company under formal contractual arrangements at another worksite either within or outside of the U.S. Outsourcing. A movement of work that was formerly conducted inhouse by em- ployees paid directly by a company to a different company under a contractual arrangement. Overseas relocation. A movement of work from an establishment within the U.S. to a location outside of the U.S. (offshoring), either within the same company or to a different company altogether (offshore outsourcing). Relocation of work action. A movement-of-work action where the employer provides information on the new location of work and/or the number of workers affected by the movement. Events may involve more than one action per employer if work is moved to more than one location. Separations. The number of individuals who have become displaced during an extended mass layoff event as provided by the employer, regardless of whether they file for unemployment insurance or not. Worksite closure. The complete closure of an employer or the partial closure of an employer with multiple locations where entire worksites affected by layoffs are closed. Revisions to preliminary data The latest quarterly data in this news release are considered preliminary. After the initial publication of quarterly information, more data are collected as remaining employer interviews for the quarter are completed and additional initial claimant information associated with extended layoff events is received. Movement of work concepts and questions Beginning in 2004, the economic reasons "domestic relocation" and "overseas relocation" were replaced by the movement of work concept. The movement of work data are not collected in the same way as the relocation reasons in releases prior to 2004; therefore, the movement of work data are not comparable to the data for those discontinued reasons. Questions on movement of work and location are asked for all layoff events when the reason for separation is other than "seasonal work" or "vacation period," as these are unlikely. Movement of work questions are asked after the analyst veri- fies that a layoff in fact occurred and lasted more than 30 days. If the reason for layoff is other than seasonal or vacation, the employer was asked the following: (1) "Did this layoff include your company moving work from this location(s) to a different geographic location(s) within your company?" (2) "Did this layoff include your company moving work that was performed in- house by your employees to a different company, through contractual arrangements?" A "yes" response to either question is followed by: "Is the location inside or outside of the U.S.?" and "How many of the layoffs were a result of this relocation?" Layoff actions are classified as "domestic relocation" if the employer responds "yes" to questions 1 and/or 2 and indicates the location(s) was inside the U.S.; "overseas relocation" indicates that the location(s) was outside the U.S. Reliability of the data The identification of employers and layoff events in the MLS program and asso- ciated characteristics of claimants is based on administrative data on covered employers and unemployment insurance claims, and, therefore, is not subject to issues associated with sampling error. Nonsampling errors such as typographical errors may occur but are not likely to be significant. While the MLS employers and layoff events are not subject to sampling error, and all such employers are asked the interview questions, the employer responses are subject to nonsampling error. Nonsampling error can occur for many reasons, including the inability to obtain information for all respondents, inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct information, and errors made in the collection or processing of the data. For the second quarter of 2011, outright refusal to participate in the employer interview accounted for 3.6 percent of all private nonfarm events. Although included in the total number of instances involving the movement of work, employers in 25 relocations were unable to provide the number of separations specifically associated with the movement of work, 3 of which involved out-of- country moves. Additional information Information in this release will be made available to sensory impaired in- dividuals upon request. Voice phone: (202)691-5200; Federal Relay Service: (800) 877-8339.
