AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT DMSI

Charlotte, North Carolina-based DMSI, an industrial staffing and third-party logistics provider that enables retail and manufacturing companies to react quickly and effectively to changing business needs, has announced a mass layoff of employees staffing the Dublin, California-based Ross Stores California distribution center operation.

The reduction in force will impact 1,600 distribution center employees located at six Ross facilities in California as Ross transitions to a new third-party warehouse staffing provider, Jacksonville, Florida-based Adecco Staffing, USA. Separations will commence on January 26, 2025.

Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
