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.
Signorvino, an Italian company of the Calzedonia Group operating in the wine shop sector, announced that it will open nine new shops in the two-year period 2022-2023 in Southern Italy, in Czech Republic (Prague), and in France (Paris). The total number of employees working in the various locations will increase by approximately 190 new employees, but the professional skills and the way in which they will be recruited are not specified. The Signorvino Observatory predicts that the turnover of the business will rise from 37 million in 2021 to 57 million in 2022, an increase of 54%.
Signorvino was founded 10 years ago and currently employs 410 people across Europe.
