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 pizza chain Domino's Pizza has announced to recruit 1,000 new staff across 88 stores in Ireland by the end of 2022. It is looking for in-store workers and contract delivery drivers. Most of the roles will be permanent with both full and part-time jobs. The reason behind the hiring is for the upcoming busy Christmas season and the international football cup during winter. The recruitment is part of a wider recruitment plan for 10,000 new staff across the UK and Ireland.
Domino’s Pizza Group has 1,200 stores across the U.K. and Ireland and currently employs 35,000 staff there.
