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.
3,000 people out of 28,000 employed in Polish company Mittal Steel are to lose their jobs. Roeland Baan – director of Mittal Steel in Central-Eastern Europe, declared that planned reductions will be carried out through voluntary leaving, and nobody will be forced to leave.
On September 2005 it was announced that the company will dismiss 9,000 people.
