More than 900 restaurant workers at Las Vegas's McCarran Airport will be laid off in October (via EaterVegas)
“HMSHost continues to see an unprecedented decline in traffic in airports and on the motorways,” the company tells the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation. “The COVID-19 pandemic has devastated the travel and restaurant industries and, unfortunately, HMSHost sits at the crossroads of both. Never in the history of aviation and the hospitality industry, have we experienced such catastrophic customer traffic declines.
HMSHost says that employees who were temporarily furloughed in March will convert to permanent layoffs on October 15 if they have not been called back to work. Sky Chefs Inc., which provides airline catering at McCarran, plans to lay off 86 of its employees effective October 1, also citing the decline in passenger traffic due to the coronavirus pandemic.
