Travel group Thomas Cook to cut 2,500 jobs across the UK

In this day and age when many of those who still afford a holiday abroad typically opt for Internet-based travel services, it’s really not a surprise that most travel giants are in real trouble, the latest to publicly show its woes being UK travel group Thomas Cook, who has revealed that they’ll have to cut a whopping 2,500 jobs across the UK and close 195 of their stores in the process.

Unfortunately, this move will also affect the company’s two stores in Cheltenham, as well as the one in Tewkesbury and Cirencester. However, Thomas Cook is yet to reveal what stores are going to close, with a staff consultation to follow before an official announcement is made.

Managing one’s workforce throughout an organization, especially when dealing with large job cuts, is a very important issue, and Time and Attendance South West offers a very comprehensive set of products aimed at minimizing all of the HR-related costs.
