Vail, AZ – A major workforce reduction is set to impact southern Arizona as Aramark Campus, LLC plans to lay off more than 100 employees in Vail.
According to a WARN notice filing, the layoffs will affect 108 employees at a facility located at 13801 E. Benson Highway, with separations scheduled to take effect May 31, 2026. The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act requires employers to provide advance notice of significant workforce reductions, giving employees and local officials time to prepare.
The notice indicates the layoffs are expected to be permanent, though additional details about the specific roles impacted or the reason behind the decision were not immediately disclosed. Aramark, a global provider of food services, facilities management, and uniform services, operates across a wide range of industries including education, healthcare, and business services.
Local economic leaders often monitor WARN notices closely, as large layoffs can have ripple effects across surrounding communities, including reduced consumer spending and increased demand for employment assistance programs. Workforce development agencies may step in to offer job placement services, resume support, and retraining opportunities for affected workers.
Arizona has seen periodic fluctuations in employment tied to contract changes and operational restructuring in service-based industries. While it is unclear whether this layoff is tied to a contract loss or broader restructuring, such notices often signal shifts in business operations or client relationships.
Employees impacted by the upcoming layoffs may be eligible for unemployment benefits and workforce transition assistance through state and local programs.
Further updates may be provided as more information becomes available regarding the cause of the layoffs and any potential support initiatives for displaced workers.
