Description
Compagnie des Transports Strasbourgeois (CTS), which manages urban passenger transport in Strasbourg, has announced the recruitment of 400 employees. Reasons for the restructuring are the extension of CTS's network by 2025, but also the need to replace drivers who will be retiring in the next few years. Hence, we estimate the number of net creations at 250.
The company also states that 'to become a driver at the CTS, no particular level of training is required'. Indeed, CTS undertakes to provide training during the job preparation phase and that is why it has entered into a partnership with Pole Emploi, the public employment service.

Digitisation and automation technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), can affect working conditions in a variety of ways and their use in the workplace raises a host of new ethical concerns.
The retail banking sector is fertile ground for studying the impacts of digitalisation on work and employment. Financial services are increasingly provided online, without the intermediary of customer-facing institutions.
European labour markets have recovered strongly from COVID-19. By the end of 2021, little more than 18 months after the start of the pandemic, employment rates in the EU were almost at pre-crisis levels.
