Councilman Tim McOsker aims to provide workers with a range of resources, including assistance with unemployment insurance benefits and help finding a new job.
“99 Cents Only stores serve an important role in our communities’ business districts,” McOsker said in a statement. “In the 15th District we have three, in Harbor City on Pacific Coast Highway, in Wilmington on Anaheim St., and in San Pedro on Gaffey St.”
The councilman said he’s been in communication with the city’s Economic Workforce Development Department and asked them to deploy a rapid response team to provide these workers with a range of resources, such as assistance with unemployment insurance benefits and helping them find a new job. On Thursday, the operators announced they would shutter its locations and began liquidation sales Friday. The move is expected to impact all company locations in California, Arizona, Nevada and Texas.
“We deeply appreciate the dedicated employees, customers, partners, and communities who have collectively supported 99 Cents Only Stores for decades.”
