They laid off 1000 casino workers in Springfield, Ma., Friday.

Jocelyn Kelly, and MGM spokeswoman, said Friday that there is no truth to the rumor that the Yonkers executives are replacing laid-off MGM Springfield workers.

MGM Springfield announced Friday it will lay off 1,000 furloughed employees, part of 18,000 job cuts being made by its parent company nationwide.

The employees had been given a Aug. 31 separation date when what were furloughed in March as Massachusetts shut down its casinos in response to the coronavirus.
