Due to a 10 percent drop in turnover in April and then a 3 percent drop in May and forced visit restrictions on most manufactured goods stores, the statistics were expected to show a significant drop in headcount during this period. And this was also confirmed, as according to the latest data, the number of employees in the stores decreased by 18.8 thousand in May compared to April (ie the month immediately preceding). May was the month when the rural shops could open on the 4th and the capital on the 18th, but not all shopkeepers succeeded, several remained closed, temporarily even or permanently, and shoppers also started to go to the shops slowly, not spending as much as before.
