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.
Apotti, the provider of the Apotti health and social care client and patient record system has initiated change negotiations with a plan to cut up to 150 jobs. In addition, the job descriptions of around 350 employees may be revised.
The company is looking to significantly improve the cost efficiency of its operations as its clients in the social work and health care sectors are facing budgetary pressures.
Apotti is owned by wellbeing services counties in the Uusimaa region, the city of Helsinki, and Helsinki University Hospital. In 2023, the company had approximately 570 employees.
