翻译考试词汇必备：裁员之后的遗留工作

　　Ghost work refers to the work that used to be done by the former employees and that must now be handled by the remaining staff after a round of layoffs¹ or firings.

　　Ghost work指经过一轮裁员之后，被裁员工之前从事的、需要留下的员工接手的工作。

　　Inevitably², the bosses have to ask their employees to do not only their regular jobs but also the work of axed colleagues — and without additional pay. The result is that no one gets the training needed to do this "ghost work".

　　老板们不可避免地会让员工在完成自己日常工作的同时接手被裁员工的工作，而且没有额外的报酬。结果是，员工们在接手这些“遗留工作”时都不能得到必要的培训。
