Ethics in the digital workplace
Digitisation and automation technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), can affect working conditions in a variety of ways and their use in the workplace raises a host of new ethical concerns.
The Italian restaurant chain Dispensa Emilia, specialised in typical recipes from Emilia Romagna region, announced its plan to open 10 new brand restaurants by the end of 2021. For this reason, the company will hire around 200 new staff.
Seven new restaurants will be opened in Lombardia, Emilia Romagna and Toscana and they will add up to the three new openings in Carpi (Modena), Lignano (Udine) e Garbagnate (Milano).
According to the company, this is a clear and precise sign of recovery that underlines the solidity of a brand despite the difficult situation of the sector amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
