California’s healthcare sector is taking another significant employment hit.
El Segundo-based 24 Hour Home Care is laying off 738 employees on September 15. The company, which employs roughly 30,000 caregivers across California, says an unexpected end to a major third-party service arrangement triggered the cuts.
And it’s not isolated.
Stanford Health Care is cutting 95 positions, John Muir Health is eliminating 78, Sharp HealthCare recently announced 168 layoffs, and Dignity Health cut another 139 positions at hospitals in Los Angeles and Bakersfield.
Taken together, that’s more than 1,200 recently announced healthcare jobs disappearing across California.
