Description
Müller Drogeria, a chain of drugstores, will open a hiring office this month and start the hiring process of 300 qualified logistical professionals who will be trained in the company's existing unit in Biatorbágy.
The company won almost HUF half billion (EUR 1,5 million) EU subventions for expanding its logistical unit and increase the number of new hires in Letenye, at the border to Croatia. The construction of the Letenye site started in November 2011. From mid-2012 this unit will supply all retail units in Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia.
Müller is present in Hungary since 2007 and operates country-wide with 34 units.

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.
