The Warrensville Heights Social Security Office will be closing its doors on May 8.
This Ohio office is set to shut down for 90 days, with no confirmation on what happens after. As of now, they’re only accepting entrants via appointment. Those in need of immediate help are encouraged to visit other local offices within the region.
Locals have complained about the sudden closure. Many have visited the office for years, and noted that the shutdown was abrupt and without warning.
So what’s the reason for this shutdown? According to reports, “high staff attrition” is the main factor. Is this an isolated case, or a common occurrence? The new Social Security Administration Commissioner Martin O’Malley has vowed to begin rebuilding the organization’s workforce.
Will this office open back up? Will more close soon after? What are your thoughts?
