伦敦塔护卫队首度裁员

The pandemic has seen the temporary closure of six sites run by Historic Royal Palaces (HRP), which all rely heavily on visitor income.
这场流行病已经迫使“历史皇家宫殿”运营的六处遗址暂时关闭,而这些景点的运营很大程度上都倚赖于游客收入。

A spokesperson for HRP confirmed that a voluntary redundancy scheme had been introduced last month and that staff had been warned that a compulsory redundancy scheme was likely to follow.
“历史皇家宫殿”的一位发言人证实,上个月已经推出了一项自愿离职计划,并已向工作人员发出警告,可能随后会实行强制裁员计划。

At least two of the 37 Yeoman Warders, nicknamed Beefeaters, who guard the Crown Jewels, have reportedly taken voluntary redundancy already.
据报道,伦敦塔37名珍宝馆护卫中至少有两人已申请自愿离职。

HRP chief executive John Barnes said the organization had "simply had no choice" but to make the cuts.
