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.
Cycleurope is a Swedish company belonging to the Grimaldi Industri group. It offers bicycles (traditional and electric ones) which are manufactured and assembled in its plants in Sweden, France and Italy. In 2017, it decided to relocate in Sweden (Varberg) the production of electric bicycles realized in France until then. The main reason for the relocation was customer proximity since the electric bicycles market is heavily growing in Sweden.
