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.
Fast food delivery chain Apache Pizza will hire 500 new employees over the next two months. The company is embarking on a national recruitment roadshow to fill the positions. The positions are for general managers, supervisors, team members and delivery drivers and will be both full and part-time. The company has said it will offer flexible working conditions, full training and opportunities for career advancement.
The 500 new jobs are in addition to 300 new roles announced earlier in 2021 when it opened 20 new stores. Apache Pizza has currently 180 stores across the country.
