Description
Moncigale, wholesale firm of alcoholic beverages, is to cut about 47 positions in Beaucaire. Additionally, 9 positions in logistics activities will be outsourced to an external company that would take over 9 employees.
Worker representatives have denounced the measure, called for strikes, and asked the labour inspectorate (Direccte) to cancel the social plan. If the latter sanctions the cuts, then first dismissals will occur around Christmas time.
Additional cuts were announced as a result from the closure of the company’s plant in Zizurkil, Spain.

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.
