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.
Claus Strand, a McDonald’s franchisee, is set to open his 11th restaurant in Rønnede, creating 70 jobs. At the same time, Jean Westh is opening a new McDonald’s restaurant in Lystrup, north of Aarhus, adding 50 jobs.
Both new restaurants will adhere to the familiar McDonald’s concept, featuring drive-in services and play areas for children.
Claus Strand was initially skeptic due to his experience bein mainly based on larger cities, however his success in Maribo and Korsør has given him confidence in this new venture in the smaller city, Rønnede.
