Interior detects 39 pages on the Internet every day with content proselytizing jihadist violence | Spain

The fight against jihadist terrorism is increasingly moving to cyberspace. Last year, Spanish security forces promoted the removal of 14,411 violent content from the Internet, mostly linked to the most radical Islam and, to a lesser extent, far-right extremism and white supremacy. The figure means that each day 39 web pages were located that contained videos, photos, text documents or profiles in which terrorism was proselytized. 75% of this content (more than 2,000 gigabytes) could finally be removed and, in this way, avoid more than 65 million views, as detailed this Thursday by Francisco Coria, head of the Anti-Terrorism Division…

Companies under pressure: How to achieve performance without exhaustion

Layoffs, job cuts, restructuring – these terms have become an integral part of our everyday work in recent years. According to an economic survey by the German Economic Institute, 36 percent of German companies plan to cut jobs in 2026. The associated uncertainties paralyze many employees, while the pressure to succeed continues to increase in times of economic crisis. A lot of pressure, but it doesn’t necessarily have to result in exhaustion. There is often more room for maneuver between the pressure that comes from outside and the pressure that we create ourselves than we initially assume. This article shows…

The regularization of migrants intensifies the political battle between the Government and the opposition | Spain

The extraordinary regularization of migrants in Spain is revealed to be one of the most comfortable political battles for the PSOE, despite the electoral profitability that anti-immigration measures have reported in numerous countries in recent times. The coalition government is defending this issue as a milestone in the legislature, aware that bringing half a million people out of painful hiding, granting them rights and placing them in decent working and social conditions are elements that left-wing voters value for themselves. In addition, the Executive has shown numbers favorable to the economy, such as the increase in contributions that these people…

Training dilemma: How can HR support young talent despite the crisis?

Germany is in a training dilemma: companies are offering fewer and fewer training positions, even though there are more people interested in training. The economic crisis is forcing many employers to reduce their offerings, and at the same time, demographic change means they cannot do without promoting young talent. This has consequences: the number of trainees is falling, as the Federal Statistical Office recently announced. Last year, 461,800 training contracts were concluded. That is 13,300 fewer training contracts than the year before, a decrease of 2.8 percent. This number doesn’t sound exciting at first. In fact, it means that there…

A body in a sack and a reckoning: three arrested in Malaga for a murder related to drug trafficking | Spain

In mid-October last year, a motorhome user made a macabre discovery in the Casasola reservoir, in the town of Almogía (4,269 inhabitants), very close to the city of Málaga. It was a sack inside which the body of a person was found with zip ties in his hands and cement blocks to sink it. Those who did it had achieved their goal, but the summer left the reservoir at very low levels, hence it was visible. A police investigation then began that sought to identify the body and solve what clearly pointed to being a murder. His tattoos allowed the…

European comparison: Countries have high levels of absenteeism despite waiting days

The government is discussing whether the waiting day should be introduced in Germany. This means that employees would not be paid wages on the first day of illness. With this regulation, which was abolished in 1970, some politicians want to motivate people in Germany to work more – also to counteract the current economic crisis. Fewer sick days would, in turn, increase our country’s productivity. A current analysis by the market research institute Datapulse and the Institute for the Training of Works Councils (Ifb) now suggests that this is not a good idea. In European countries that have waiting days,…

In detail | Pardo de Vera points out Koldo GarcíaThe former president of Adif Isabel Pardo de Vera has cleared up the mystery surrounding her statement as a witness in the mask trial and, despite being charged in the National Court, she has chosen to speak.

Crisis bonus sparks emotional debate – human resources management

The relief package decided by the black-red coalition is causing quite a stir. In particular, the tax- and duty-free bonus of up to 1,000 euros is predominantly commented on with skepticism or rejection. And for a variety of reasons. The relief bonus is being discussed particularly lively on social media. For example, a Linkedin post by Janine Kordes, managing director of Kieler Seifen GmbH and entrepreneur in the industrial cleaning sector, generated over 500 comments within a very short time. Kordes addresses Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) directly: What sounds like a friendly option to him is “often received as a…
