Description
The Japanese company Fujitsu Technology Solutions, a provider of IT infrastructure, plans to lay off 834 employees from its facilities in Łódź and Katowice. The lay-offs are part of a large-scale redundancy initiative. The intention to carry out collective redundancies was reported to the Labour Offices in July 2025.
Fujitsu Technology Solutions is providing IT support services and infrastructure to global corporate clients, primarily from the financial, banking and telecommunications industries, operating in Poland since 2001. It has Global Delivery Centres located in Warsaw, Łódź and Katowice, where it employs 3,800 people.
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.
