geovalin Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 PHNOM PENH, April 30 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - With plunging profits, Cambodia’s largest casino is set to slash 1,300 jobs and pay redundant staff a fraction of the severance money they are legally owed, the workers’ union and advocates said, as the COVID-19 pandemic threatens labour laws worldwide. NagaWorld resort - with almost 1,700 luxury rooms, themed gaming halls, karaoke lounges, spas and an underground shopping centre in the capital, Phnom Penh - told more than 15% of staff this month that they will be laid off in the next few weeks.
