A police stand-off has ended peacefully after dozens of homes were evacuated at Mooloolaba overnight.

Police ordered people from their homes in five streets about 8pm, after officers were called to a Tarcoola Avenue residence for a welfare check hours earlier.

Police made an emergency declaration after a 51-year-old man inside the property allegedly began making threats.

The 51-year-old was taken into custody without incident just before midnight.

The union representing retail workers says it is still unclear how many employees will be affected by the closure of two David Jones stores in Queensland.

Receivers for the embattled department store confirmed on Wednesday that Robina Town Centre and Sunshine Plaza stores were among 19 sites affected nationwide.

Justin Power, the Queensland branch secretary of retail union SDA, said the union would seek staff redeployment.

He said casuals had few entitlements when stores closed, while full-time and part-time workers would be entitled to payouts of accrued long service or annual leave.

Sunshine Coast shopper Susan Hayden said she still enjoyed visiting David Jones and wanted to see the 188-year-old retailer survive.
