AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT POSTAL CENTER INTERNATIONAL

Weston, Florida-based Postal Center International, a full-service mail, print, and digital marketing solutions partner, has announced the permanent closure of its corporate headquarters in Weston and major regional facilities in Franklin, Massachusetts, and San Antonio, Texas, due to “unforeseeable business circumstances.”

Weston will impact 181 employees, from executives to clerical workers. Likewise, 112 employees will be impacted at the Franklin processing center, and 164 employees in San Antonio. There is no mention of its Brownsburg, Indiana location.

Change is constant, and it's coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of 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, at any time, 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 MOSAIC

Tampa, Florida-based Mosaic Company, the largest U.S. producer of potash and phosphate fertilizers, has announced a reduction in force related to the availability of sulfur feedstock used in the production of phosphate fertilizer.

The safety of our employees, contractors, communities, and the environment remains Mosaic's highest priority. Mosaic will continue to responsibly manage its facilities and assets, in accordance with regulatory requirements.”

"We recognize how difficult this news is for our employees and their families. Please know that we are committed to supporting them through this transition, with the care and safety of our people and communities as our top priority."
