EasyJet To Cut 30% Of Its Workforce Amid Coronavirus Pandemic

EasyJet plans to cut up to 4500 jobs due to decreased demand from the COVID-19 pandemic. The CEO acknowledges the difficulty of these decisions but aims to protect as many jobs as possible. The airline will consult with employees and reduce its fleet size to cut costs. The British Airline Pilots Association criticizes the decision, suggesting recovery by 2023. EasyJet has secured significant funding and plans to resume some routes by mid-June, with safety measures like mandatory face masks in place.
