Description
Italian tour operator Valtur is to cut 105 jobs. As reported, in the framework of an insolvency procedure the company has enacted a mobility procedure for about 100 workers which are currently covered by Wages guarantee fund until December 2014.
Redundant workers were employed in the touristic villages in Capo Rizzuto (Crotone), Marileva (Trento), Pila (Aosta), Santo Stefano (Olbia), Sestriere (Torino), Pollina (Palermo) and at the Milan offices of the company. The Wages guarantee funds have been enacted in December 2013, when the sites were acquired by Orovacanze, that agreed to hire back at least 83 out of the 223 Valtur workers and that recently confirmed its unavailability to further increase its workforce due to its weak economic performance.
Trade unions asked for the activation of passive and active labour market policies to support redundant workers.

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.
