Over 3% of the Bay Area's approximately 4.1 million jobs have been lost. Hotels, restaurants and retailers have been the hardest hit, accounting for around half of layoffs. Virtually every major hotel chain, from Marriott to Hyatt to the Four Seasons, was affected. Major retail chains like Lacoste, Dick's Sporting Goods, Abercrombie &amp; Fitch, Zara and H&amp;M had mass layoffs as they were forced to close under health orders. Major tech companies including Uber, Airbnb, Lyft, Zenefits, Lending Club and GoPro, along with smaller startups, had around 10,000 layoffs. Uber is laying off 6,700 globally, but indicated only 275 layoffs in San Francisco as of June 3. Yelp is laying off 1,000 and Juul is laying off 900, but it isn't currently clear how many of those lost jobs were in the Bay Area.Real estate, particularly construction companies, had nearly 8,000 layoffs, though some contractors said they rehired workers as shelter-in-place orders were eased in May to allow all types of building again. Many layoffs were classified as temporary in state filings, but it's unclear when and how many workers will be rehired as shelter-in-place orders continue in the Bay Area. Few businesses have been spared, and with dozens of new layoff notices every day, there's no end in sight.advertisementGet the Bay Area's best journalism delivered to my inbox dailyThis site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google and apply.
