HBC has announced it will close the remaining Zellers stores which were not taken over by Target. About 6400 workers will lose their jobs.  Workers in the stores being converted to Target have also been told that they are being laid off. I send my condolences to all the Zellers workers who are losing their jobs – from the newest additions, to those who have worked in the stores for nearly forty years. This is a strong reminder of the need to revolutionize retail so workers’ needs are taken more seriously.
