Casino and hotel operator MGM Resorts, slammed by declines in travel and tourism, said last week that it's eliminating 18,000 jobs. The Coca-Cola Co., which derives half its sales from


stadiums, theaters and other venues that have been largely shut down, is offering buyouts to 4,000 employees. Salesforce said it is cutting 1,000 jobs. Bed, Bath & Beyond will shed


2,800. A Federal Reserve report this week, based on anecdotal reports from businesses, found “rising instances of furloughed workers being laid off permanently as demand remained soft."


SOME STATES ARE OFFERING $300 PER WEEK IN BENEFITS Roughly 29 million Americans are receiving state unemployment aid, although their total benefits, on average, have shrunk by more than


half since the expiration of a $600-a-week federal supplement more than a month ago. The Trump administration has set up a program that will provide some of the unemployed with $300 a week.


But new rules and requirements will make many of the unemployed ineligible. Only people who receive at least $100 a week in state unemployment aid will qualify for the $300 federal


supplement — a requirement that could exclude at least 850,000 Americans. Click here for a list of states that participate in that expanded benefits program. The ongoing job losses and


economic slump have left a rising share of Americans out of work for longer periods. From June to July, the number of people who were unemployed for 15 weeks or longer tripled to more than 6


million. One consequence is that rising stress and anxiety are evident at therapists’ offices and in calls to mental health hotlines around the country. Calls from March through July to the


U.S. government–funded Disaster Distress Helpline, which offers counseling and emotional support, surged 335 percent from the same period last year. And half of U.S. adults reported at


least some signs of depression, such as hopelessness, feelings of failure or an inability to derive pleasure from daily activities, in a survey published Wednesday in the medical journal 


_JAMA Network Open._ That amounted to twice the rate from a survey two years ago.
