Description
The company Limec CNC opened a new production facility in Odranci where about 150 persons will gradually find employment. On opening day, the company employed 12 persons. Another 30 persons are expected to be hired by the end of this year and the remainder by August 2020. The investor, the Swiss company Limec Solution, plans to manufacture various high-tech items for the medical industry (such as LEDs for operating tables, lasers, surgical knives) and the automative industry. Hans Peter Strebel, the director of the mother company, said that 90 per cent of products now manufactured in Switzerland, Germany, and Austria, will be produced in Odranci.
Limec Solutions has already a network of production facilities in Slovenia with factories in Ljubljana, Novo mesto, Kranj, Horjul, and now also Odranci.

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.

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.
