Many of their staff will already have been through the wringer with the Thomas Cook collapse.
The scholars' income isn't even guaranteed if schools close. The boys both take a taxi to school and their drivers would lose a lot of steady income.
A friend of mine works for Hays Travel, she's only been there a few weeks so I'm surprised they didn't exploit the fact she's still on her probationary period to just get rid of her!
She was essentially told to take unpaid leave or have her contracted hours reduced. They're also moving some staff from the overstaffed stores to the understaffed stores
