Job cuts climbed in March 2025, with the federal government’s impending plans to eliminate thousands of federal employees and contractors. So far, more than 280,000 federal jobs and contractors employed at 27 agencies were downsized. Moreover, financial observers predict that the impact of sweeping tariffs worldwide, and the ongoing federal workforce reductions, likely will mean steeper cuts in the near future. In addition to the government, the most impacted industries were technology, retail, consumer & auto and the financial sectors. From information about worker’s rights to job listings, FunTimes has put together a user’s guide focusing on employment services and related resources to assist those displaced by recent job-market developments.
