UK Offers Help For 9,000 Thomas Cook Staff.
British Government officials and embassy staff assist passengers left stranded after the collapse of British travel firm Thomas Cook, at Punta Cana’s international airport, in the Dominican Republic, on September 23, 2019. Erika SANTELICES / AFPThousands of UK staff who lost their jobs after the sudden collapse of holiday giant Thomas Cook will be offered assistance, Britain said Wednesday.
Some of the workforce has been retained to help repatriate thousands of stranded passengers from abroad, but many have already been made redundant. “This will help to attempt to overcome barriers to attending training, securing a job and self employment — such as providing childcare costs, tools, work clothes and travel costs,” he said.
Shapps said the government has called upon the Financial Reporting Council “to ensure they prioritise as a matter of urgency” an investigation into both the causes of Thomas Cook’s failure — and the conduct of its directors and auditors.
