Coronavirus Impact: Trump National Doral Miami Lays Off 560 Workers

MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) - Trump National Doral Miami, the place where President Donald Trump initially wanted to host this year's Group of Seven summit has temporarily laid off 560 workers.

A notice that the Trump National Doral Miami filed with the State of Florida at the end of last month says it had been forced to halt its business because of the spreading new coronavirus.

The resort in metro Miami has been closed since mid-March. Al Linares, the resort's director of human resources, wrote to state and city officials that it's unknown when it will resume regular operations.

The laid-off workers are mostly food and beverage workers, golf attendants, housekeepers and bell hops. None of the workers are unionized.
