Hilton Cuts 2,100 Jobs Globally; Moroccan Hotels Face Uncertainty

In Morocco, the group owns hotels in Tangier and Casablanca. The announcement of this series of economic layoffs could also affect Moroccan employees. In addition to global job losses, Hilton wants to put employees on longer leave. They will work less and receive lower salaries. The company assures the importance of taking these measures which aim to strengthen finances and reduce the costs of crisis exit.

The hotel industry is facing an unprecedented crisis. "Never in Hilton’s 101-year history has the hotel industry experienced a global crisis that has almost completely stopped travel," said CEO Christopher Nassetta.
