Description
Majorel, an international service company specialising in customer experience services, has announced an employment redundancy plan (ERE) in Spain affecting 223 employees.
The affected company’s workplaces are located in Barcelona, Madrid, Jerez de la Frontera, Salamanca and Zaragoza. According to Majorel, the internal restructuring plan is taking place in order to guarantee employment stability and business continuity.
Majorel has more than 82,000 team members worldwide and operates in 45 countries on five continents. In Spain, the company has a total of 8,000 employees, of which 2,8% are affected by this restructuring measure.
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.
