REPORT FROM THE U.S. – Despite TSA-reported air traffic numbers that reached pandemic records, hotel worker unemployment took a big hit after the Thanksgiving holiday, labor management data form Hotel Effectiveness shows.
Hotel employment at a sample of more than 4,000 hotels in the U.S. has declined by approximately 365,000 over the past four weeks, the data shows.
Travel restrictions and ongoing anti-travel advisories are expected to lead to further job cuts before the Christmas-New Year holiday period.
