Carson's to cut 3,500 employees in Illinois as it closes all stores

More than 3,500 Carson’s employees in Illinois will lose their jobs this summer as the department store chain shuts down.

The company’s 35 stores in Illinois, plus two distribution centers, will shutter by Aug. 31, though some may close sooner depending on how much merchandise remains, spokeswoman Christine Hojnacki said in an email Thursday.

Other companies reporting layoffs to the state were Swap.com in Bolingbrook, an e-commerce site for secondhand clothes, which laid off 196 people between March 30 and April 2, according to the report. The reason given for the layoff was “financial.” The company did not immediately respond to request for comment.

West Liberty Foods announced the potential layoff of 184 of its 1,200 employees at its manufacturing plant in Bolingbrook, resulting from decisions to shut down a chicken deboning line and move roast beef production to Iowa, said Dan Waters, vice president and general counsel at the West Des Moines, Iowa-based meat processer.

The layoffs, which will be effective June 29, primarily affect production workers hired this year, he said. He expects the impact to be mitigated by the reassignment of affected workers to other positions as they become available.
