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.
Irish renewable energy company, NRG Panel, is to create 125 new jobs in Ireland by 2029.
The Monaghan head-quartered renewables group currently employs 74 people and aims to double its level of business over the next three to five years.
The roles will be based across Ireland and they will be mostly highly skilled, according to NRG Panel.
The company installs solar panels, heat pumps, and electric vehicle chargers alongside other products to reduce carbon emissions. The expansion is supported by private equity firm Melior Equity Partners, which is backed by the European Investment Fund, the Irish Strategic Investment Fund, Bank of Ireland and AIB.
