AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT BROADWAY SERVICES

Baltimore, Maryland-based Broadway Services, a staffing company jointly owned by the Johns Hopkins University and Johns Hopkins Health Systems, and a provider of support services, including property and facility management, janitorial, and security services, has announced that it is shutting down all operations.

The reduction will impact 1,047 employees with separations scheduled for June 30, 2025.

A spokesperson noted that Broadway Services employees work at the university and the health system, as well as for clients throughout the region, and the decision to shut down Broadway Services was made last year and is not related to any federal funding cut.

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?

AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT OSG

Carol Stream, Illinois-based OSG (Output Services Group), a provider of customer communications management (CCM) solutions and services, has announced the closure of its Birmingham, Alabama facility.

The closure will impact 135 employees.

According to a company statement, “OSG remains financially stable and fully committed to investing in our facilities, employees, and the communities we serve. This decision reinforces our dedication to innovation, efficiency, and delivering best-in-class solutions to our clients.”

AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT RTI INTERNATIONAL

Research Triangle Park, North Carolina-based RTI International, a nonprofit organization providing research and technical services to government and private organizations has announced another reduction in force attributable to changes in government funding.

The personnel realignment will impact 150 employees, including more than 80 in North Carolina.

A company spokesperson noted, "As we adapt to evolving federal priorities, additional workforce changes may be necessary in the coming weeks to ensure RTI's long-term stability and impact. We are committed to supporting both our departing and remaining staff during this transition. RTI remains focused on advancing technical solutions and data-driven research that contribute to a safer, stronger, and more prosperous nation and world."

According to published reports, "RTI International stands to lose millions through the Trump administration’s gutting of U.S. Agency for International Development and cuts to funding and grant reviews at the National Institutes of Health."
