Faced with a lasting crisis, hotel groups are increasing their social plans.
The most important of them, AccorInvest (a 30% subsidiary of Accor and owner of 900 hotels in Europe), has just announced a plan to cut 1,880 jobs in Europe, including 770 in France.
“We do not expect a return to normal before 2024,
recognizes Gilles Clavié, its managing director.
A third of our clientele is international and 60% business.
It will come back gradually.
Despite the aid mechanisms of the various governments, we must adjust our structure. ”

In 2020, turnover fell by 70%.
Under an ad hoc mandate, AccorInvest requested at the beginning of October a State guaranteed loan (PGE) of 470 million euros, which it is still awaiting.
A capital increase of the same magnitude - subscribed by its shareholders - would also be a matter of weeks.
“AccorInvest will cut around 10% of jobs,”
notes Gilles d'Arondel, secretary of the FO Accor union.
