Airlines
United To Furlough More Than 16,000 Employees
Extension of the U.S. government’s Payroll Support Program could avoid the need for involuntary cuts until the first quarter of 2021, said United Airlines.

United Airlines will furlough 16,370 employees starting on October 1 upon the expiration of the Payroll Support Program the U.S. government instituted as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, the airline said on Wednesday.
