If you work for a company that is forced to consider laying off employees, or is restructuring due to increased imports or shifts in production to Canada or Mexico, you may be eligible for a variety of reemployment services and assistance available to such workers. You may qualify for assistance under the Trade Act programs if you have lost your job due to a plant closing or a layoff. Certain people who are not employed by companies, such as family farmers, may also be eligible for assistance.
If you are NOT eligible for Trade Act programs, you may still be
eligible for other forms of assistance. Further information can be obtained in the
Dislocated Worker website.
