CLAY, N.Y. — In a filing with New York State, Sears says the closure of its store in Great Northern Mall on Route 31 in Clay will eliminate 57 jobs.
Fifty-two of those jobs are in the store, No. 01623, and another five will be lost when the Sears Auto Center at the east end of the store shuts down.
Both facilities are slated to close at the end of September, with layoffs scheduled for the same time, according to the company’s Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notice with the state Department of Labor.
