"We've invested significantly in our efforts across election integrity, even outside of the European elections. We have over 6,000 content moderators who are supporting our content moderation efforts, right the way across Europe," he added.TikTok employs around 3,000 people in Ireland. Recent global job cuts at the company impacted some Irish-based teams but TikTok said it is continuing to hire in this country.
