According to Macy’s, the company’s employees in the Bay Area and California are facing the loss of many hundred jobs as a result of the classic company’s decision to shut down 66 stores nationwide and some in this position.
Individually, Rite Aide has made it known that it will close one of its San Jose locations, causing the city to lose more than a few work.
The revelations suggest that the besieged financial sector’s financial woes, which are brought on by competition from online e-commerce platforms and, in some cases, by issues with crime and theft, have not yet taken root.
All told, Macy’s has decided to remove 470 work in California, including cuts totaling 147 jobs in the Bay Area, according to several WARN finds the department store chain sent to the position Employment Development Department.
The Rite Aide business that is closing in San Jose is at 6091 Meridian Avenue, a WARN see disclosed.
Macy’s had recently announced its , decision to close 66 businesses nationwide, including six in California, of which two were in the Bay Area , places of Newark and Corte Madera.
Los Angeles, Westminster in Orange County, and Sacramento and Citrus Heights in Sacramento are the other Macy’s locations that were closing in California.
Macy’s extensive career breaks at six retailers in California, according to the EDD WARN see. What is known at this time is as follows:
94 Newark office store layoffs, including at the Newpark Mall.
— 53 layoffs at its Corte Madera business.
— 98 work reductions in Los Angeles.
— 93 cuts in Westminster.
— 71 in Sacramento.
— 61 in Citrus Heights.
In a weblog post a few days ago about the closure plans, Macy’s CEO Tony Spring stated that” closing any business is not easy.”
When a store on Meridian Avenue in southern San Jose is completely closed, Rite Aide announced to the state EDD that it would eliminate 16 positions.
The drugstore and pharmacy chain announced that the chain had entirely close by February 26, which is the anticipated start date for San Jose’s layoffs.
In the WARN notice to the EDD, Nichole Huber, a Rite Aide human resources standard, wrote that “associates ( who are on the job listing ) may get transferred to different stores or offered another roles.”
The United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 5 represents some of the Meridian Avenue people. If there aren’t any close positions accessible, the workers could be completely cut out of working for Rite Aide.
According to the WARN papers, all six Macy’s locations were scheduled to close their gates on March 18.
In the website article, Spring stated,” We are closing underproductive Macy’s businesses to allow us to focus our resources and promote investments in our go-forward businesses, where users are already responding favorably to better product offerings and increased service.
