Rite Aid Closures Are Affecting Thousands—We’re Here for You
Mass layoffs resulting from Rite Aid’s bankruptcy and store closures have upended the lives of pharmacy professionals across the country. Thousands are being let go, and those still employed are being asked to take on more patients, more scripts, and more pressure with little-to-no added support.Whether you’re facing job loss or an overwhelming workload, The Pharmacy Guild/IAM is here for you. We’re building a movement to fight for better conditions, job security, and respect in pharmacy workplaces. No one should have to carry this burden alone.If you’re a pharmacist, pharmacy technician, pharmacy intern or other pharmacy staff impacted by the chaos at Rite Aid, CVS, Walgreens, or one of the other corporate pharmacies, please reach out. Let’s stand together.
Has Work Gotten Worse? REPORT ON POTENTIAL WORKLOAD INCREASES NOW
We want to hear from you. As Rite Aid stores close and more prescriptions are shifted to CVS and Walgreens, pharmacy professionals are being asked to do more with less—less staff, less time, and less support. Whether you were laid off, transferred, or are picking up the extra workload, your experience matters. Help The Pharmacy Guild/IAM document what’s really happening on the ground by sharing how your job has changed. Your voice will help us fight for safer, fairer working conditions for all pharmacy professionals.
Let Go? Layoff Resources Are Available to You
If you were laid off from Rite Aid, you may be eligible for unemployment benefits and other support programs.
We know this is a difficult time. The Pharmacy Guild/IAM is here to help guide you through what’s next.
