Description
Cobham Satcom, producer of communications equipment, is to create up to 200 jobs in Pandrup (Northern Jutland).
The job creation results of the company’s relocation of part of its production and warehouse operations to Jammerbugt. This partly includes the relocation of some of its U.S. operations to Denmark. The company expects to occupy the new facilities by the end of 2014.
The plans are part of a move to strengthen the company’s profile in Denmark after taking over the Danish communications company Thrane & Thrane in 2012.
The Danish headquarters of Cobham are placed in Lyngby in the outskirts of Copenhagen. The company’s facilities in Pandrup have previously served the operations of Siemens and Flextronics.

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.
