Maersk to cut at least 10,000 jobs as shipping boom ends

  • Maersk, one of the world's largest shipping firms, is cutting 3,500 more jobs due to lower freight rates and demand, reducing its global workforce to below 100,000.
  • High demand for shipping led to congestion, logistical problems, and a shortage of shipping containers in Asia, driving up inflation. However, inflation and rising interest rates have now curbed spending and dampened demand.
  • The job cuts are expected to save Maersk £600m next year, and the company warns of a slowing global economy and geopolitical tensions that could impact its revenues and volumes.
