Marshfield Clinic Health System to lay off 346 workers across network - WSAW

MARSHFIELD, Wis. (WSAW) - Marshfield Clinic Health System has announced 346 employees across its network in Wisconsin, Michigan, and other states will be laid off with 222 of those from Wisconsin alone, making up 63% of the total layoffs.

The following is a list according to the Wisconsin DWD Warn notice of affected locations and the number of employees/positions:

Colby (1), Marshfield (60), Rhinelander (1), Minocqua (11), Weston (14), Merrill (4), Wausau (14), Stevens Point (1), Stratford (1), Wisconsin Rapids (1), Woodruff (1), Hayward (2), Ladysmith (8), Park Falls (9), Caddot (3), Eau Claire (16), Chippewa Falls (5), Rice Lake (13), Neillsville (10), and Beaver Dam (47).

The WARN Notice from Marshfield Clinic Health System stated that all affected employees will be notified between March 1-15, with permanent layoffs taking effect May 19.

According to a separate statement from the healthcare system, the decision comes against the backdrop of a healthcare industry challenged by skyrocketing labor costs, higher supply expenses, and a reduction in reimbursements.

“We are not immune to the immense pressure and unprecedented challenges gripping the health care industry in recent years, which has required us to identify ways to be more efficient and more resourceful,” said Dr. Susan Turney, CEO of Marshfield Clinic Health System. “Reducing staff is always painful. This is ultimately about preserving the long-term efficiency and sustainability of our organization.”

The health system has also eliminated more than 500 positions that have been unfilled and no longer recruited. A media release stated that the move has lessened the impact on employees.

The layoffs did not seem to specifically target one or two positions, though Appointment Coordinators and RNs were listed in the WARN Notice more frequently than others.

The organization stated it has more than 12,000 employees in Wisconsin.
