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 French IT multinational Capgemini is launching a recruitment campaign and aims at recruiting 500 new employees in 2024 in Lyon (Rhône) on permanent employment contracts. According to the management, the aim is to 'meet the transformation challenges of its regional clients, which may be locally-based companies or international groups'. The company is looking for development engineers, project managers, software architects and data application consultants. The company also highlights its 'respectful working environment for all sexual orientations and gender identities' and it promotes 'inclusion of LGBT+ people in the world of work'.
Two previous announcement has been made in 2023 with 2,500 job creations (Capgemini-2023-FR), and in 2022 concerning the hiring of 400 employees at the Rennes site (Ille-et-Villaine) Capgemini-2022-FR.
