MGM Resorts said 18,000 furloughed employees in the US would be permanently laid off.

Hotel and casino giant MGM Resorts on Friday said 18,000 furloughed employees in the United States would be permanently laid off as the hospitality industry struggles amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The US has seen tens of millions of layoffs since Covid-19 broke out, with the wave peaking in late March but nonetheless still potent. In the week of August 22, the latest reported by the Labor Department, around one million people made new claims for unemployment benefits. Hornbuckle said MGM would offer health benefits through the end of September and laid-off workers could re-apply for their jobs when they become available.
