Description
American automotive supplier BorgWarner has announced plans to reduce its workforce in Landskrona by approximately 130 employees, though the exact number is still unclear, influenced partly by retirements.
The company cites the global reduction in demand for electric vehicles as the main driving force behind the announced layoffs, which has resulted in a slowdown in both production and sales for the company.
Borg Warner has been operating in Landskrona since the 1990s and has been producing electric motors for both trucks and passenger cars at the site since 2020.

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.
