Apple plans to create about 1.000 new jobs at the company's headquarters in Cork, Ireland upon completion of the expansion process in mid-2017. These jobs go directly to Apple's campus in Hollyhill, where it leads since 1980 the company settled.
Today Apple generates 25% more employment than a year ago and these figures continue to increase and will continue to increase as long as sales and other business of the company accompany. Those in Cupertino generate approximately 18.000 jobs, of which more than 5.000 are direct, and these 1.000 new jobs will now be added in 2017.
The words of the pFirst Prime Minister of Ireland, Enda Kenny, are positive about these new jobs that will be generated thanks to the company of the bitten apple and explained that without a doubt the creation of new jobs is always good for everyone:
Apple's plans to create new facilities on its Cork campus that can accommodate more than 1.000 jobs is a significant and positive boost for Cork and the Southeast region. It is also positive for the regional recovery itself. The work environment, the human quality of the employees, the business environment and the trust between the government itself and Apple is positive for everyone.
Now we only have to wait for these jobs to become a reality, something that if everything continues on schedule will be fulfilled in just a year and a half. Undoubtedly Apple trusts Ireland and the country itself is interested in having a large company like Apple in its territory for many reasons, but the main one we imagine will be the economic one and the employment it generates.
