Emirates to fire workers

Emirates, que emprega cerca de 100.000 pessoas, showed the intention to eliminate jobs, as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. No entanto, did not specify how many workers should be made redundant.

It is recalled that the airline suspended its activity in late March, although it has carried out some repatriation flights. Also in that month, it made a temporary reduction of 25 a 50% in the base wages of most of its employees.

It should be noted that, despite the decrease in revenues due to the suspension of flights by covid-19, Emirates made profits from 264,57 million euros in the fiscal year ending March. Ou seja, mais 21%.
