Description
Compass Group France, a subsidiary of the UK catering company Compass Group, has announced its plans to cut 104 jobs between November 2009 and July 2010. 118 jobs will be reduced and 10 vacancies will not be filled. At the same time, 10 new jobs are to be created.
A staff reduction is needed because the company has merged operations at its headquarter in Chatillon.
Trade unions and employees contested this decision in October 2009. Compass Group France assured that it wants to avoid direct lay-offs. In total, the group employs some 15,000 people in France.

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.
