Ikea has been ordered by a French court to pay a €1m (£861,000) fine for spying on its staff, after the world’s biggest furniture retailer was found guilty of improperly gathering and storing data on its employees.
The French branch of Ingka Group, which owns most Ikea stores worldwide, was accused of snooping on its workers and some of its clients over several years.
