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 All Circuits group has just inaugurated the extension of its MSL Circuits subsidiary site in Meung-sur-Loire (Loiret) and has announced the recruitment of 200 people by 2025. New hires will mainly be for production and production management positions and the workforce will be increased from 600 to 800.
All Circuits is a group operating in the electronics sector. It has sites in France, in Angers (design office) and Bayonne, as well as in Tunisia and Mexico and employs 2,000 people worldwide. The new electronic board assembly plant at its Meung-sur-Loire site required an investment of around €25 million. All Circuits is a supplier to Valeo, Renault and Stellantis, among others. The group has received double support from the national recovery plan: firstly, from 2020, for the construction of the building, and then recently for the acquisition of three new production lines, which will be installed by 2024. All Circuits has obtained €1.6 million from the State and EU funds for the relocation of industrial activities.
