The Trump National Doral is temporarily closed like the rest of the hotel facilities in Miami-Dade and other areas of Florida due to the pandemic of Covid-19, which has affected more than 22 thousand people in the state, of which almost 600 have died, according to the latest official figures.

Only essential personnel continue to work, according to the notification.

Trump Miami Resorts Management notes that it has already warned workers that they have been suspended from employment and wages or temporarily laid off, mostly in gastronomy, hotel or golf positions, and that none of them have union membership.

The company stresses the “sudden, dramatic and unforeseen” nature of the “calamity” of the Covid-19, which led to orders to reduce or stop business activities in Florida, as the reason for these labor measures.

Since March 19, Trump National Doral has had to go without employees in non-essential positions and currently does not yet know when it will be able to resume operations and call the workers again, the letter indicates.
