Germany’s national carrier Lufthansa on Monday confirmed reports that it intends to cut 4,000 administrative positions by 2030.
The company said it would use artificial intelligence (AI), digitalization and efficiency savings among its member airlines.
The announcement comes days after another major German company, the industrial giant Bosch, said it would cut 13,000 jobs partly with the use of AI.
