In “45 professions” at the company’s bases in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium

Airline Lufthansa today launched a campaign to ‘recruit’ 20,000 employees in Europe, amid a strong recovery in air traffic and labor shortages in the industry.

Lufthansa is “hiring 20,000 new associates” in “45 occupations” at the company’s bases in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium, the group said in a statement.

According to the airline, they are particularly looking for “technicians, IT specialists, lawyers, pilots and cabin crew”.

A “part” of the jobs offered concerns the creation of these positions, with the rest being replacements for employees “who have left”, a representative of the group told AFP today.

According to figures released in the autumn, Lufthansa had 108,000 employees at the end of September and wanted to increase that number to around 115,000 by the end of 2023 — down from the 138,000 the group had at the end of 2019, before the shock. of Covid-19.

To make these hires, the company will launch an information campaign “in the press, radio and the Internet, as well as on social media” to attract candidates.

Like the industry as a whole, Lufthansa is facing a labor shortage as many workers left the industry permanently after the pandemic.
