Two of the Trump Organization’s properties in South Florida — the Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach and Trump Doral in Miami — have furloughed all “non-essential” staff, a total of 713 people.
At President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club, 153 people will be furloughed, according to a WARN letter sent to Florida’s Department of Economic Opportunity by Janine Gill, director of human resources at the Mar-a-Lago Club, and copied to Palm Beach Mayor Gail Coniglio. In the letter, dated March 27, Gill wrote the club began halting its operations “due to the unforeseen business circumstances caused by the natural disaster and spread of the novel coronavirus, the mandated closures under Palm Beach County’s Declaration of Emergency, as well as recommendations regarding public gatherings ... the club has been forced to place its non-essential personnel on temporary furlough status.
The furloughed workers include both indoor and outdoor staff, and range from dishwashers to tennis pros to executive assistants.Both furloughs are said to be temporary, although when workers will be called back remains unknown. The coronavirus pandemic has crippled the tourist-oriented Florida economy, forcing the closure closure of hotels, restaurants, nightclubs and recreational facilities just before the lucrative spring vacation season.
