Description
FM Mattsson, a Swedish manufacturer of equipment and accessories for plumbing, taps and fittings, initiates cooperation negotiations on the redundancy of 35 out of 335 employees at its site in Mora, Sweden. Negotiations have been started with the parties concerned.
The redundancies are set out as a measure to cut costs. The company has experienced a decline in sales and profitability in the Nordic market. In addition, a weaker construction market is reducing demand for the company's goods. Lower sales are most evident in the production in Mora, which is why the dismissals will take place there.
FM Mattsson is Swedish-based with a total of 532 employees. The company sells its products to the rest of the Nordic region and large parts of Europe.

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.
