Description
Airbus, Europe's largest producer of commercial and military aircrafts and helicopters, announced it will create 800 to 1000 new jobs at its production site in Hamburg.
Airbus aims to significantly increase its production by 2025 and therefore plans to hire 800 to 1000 new employees by mid-2023. After being drastically reduced during the Corona pandemic (Airbus 2020 - DE), production is now expected to gradually increase again, reaching a record 75 A320 Family aircraft in 2025.
In total, Airbus currently employs 21450 people in civil aircraft production at its German sites. Airbus has already rehired 700 permanent employees and around 1,400 temporary workers last year and this year. Hamburg is the second largest Airbus location after Toulouse, France.

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.
