The labour market situation has been gradually deteriorating since the beginning of 2020, with employment declining year on year in almost the whole spectrum of industries in April and May. The aim of the article is, therefore to point out the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on employers in the transport and telecommunications sectors and to analyze the use of government measures to support employment.
