The Far-Reaching Impact of Layoffs Beyond the Headlines

When layoffs happen, the ripple effects extend far beyond the headlines — they impact people, families, and communities. Supporting someone who’s been affected doesn’t always require grand gestures; it starts with empathy and action.

Reach out personally — not just with “Let me know if I can help,” but with something specific: a referral, a coffee chat, or a signal boost for their post.

Share open roles, connect them with recruiters, or simply listen without judgment. As leaders and peers, our response in these moments defines workplace culture.

Let’s make sure those navigating uncertainty know they’re not alone — that community extends beyond employment status.
