But we're forgetting about their employees who get no job and salary in the current situation.
That is true, of course, but it does not only affect the gaming industry by far. Almost all economic sectors are affected by the crisis, be it producers of goods, industries with direct customer contact (e.g. consultants, bank employees, ...) and also employees in the casinos.

How companies are now dealing with the crisis and how they treat their employees during the crisis says a lot about the companies themselves, but will also show us which companies will be able to survive after the crisis. Because only those who behave fairly and socially even during the crisis will quickly find new employees in a phase of upswing after Corona.

This only concludes how important to have a savings so we can prepare to this kind of scenario and for the workers, I cannot blame them if they are asking their employers for a salary because they need money right now in order to buy food and etc. just to survive in this type of situation.

In a crisis like this, where potentially no sales are made for months, even a company's best reserves don't help. Imagine a medium-sized company with 10,000 employees. An employee here in Central Europe costs around 30 euros an hour. So you have to have reserves of 2.4 million euros (30 * 8 * 10000) per day. A company of this size might do well for a month, and two or more months inevitably lead to insolvency.
