Abstract
The coronavirus outbreak represents the greatest public health crisis in a generation. Whilst the health risk for the families impacted is the most important concern, the pandemic will have a significant economic impact. One part of the economy particularly affected by Covid-19 is tourism-facing sectors. With borders shut down and aircrafts parked in airports from March of this year, there has been a significant knock-on effect to the civil aviation and aerospace engineering sectors. The government’s Job Retention Scheme (JRS) has kept unemployment artificially low while the country is in lockdown however, as they begin scaling back the JRS, the number of job losses across the country will climb. Only now are we beginning to feel the real economic hit caused by the ongoing pandemic. The purpose of this report is to estimate the economic impact that job losses in these sectors could have on the Scottish economy in terms of output, Gross Value Added (GVA) and employment.
