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 telecommunications group Elisa started personnel negotiations concerning one thousand people on Monday, 27 February 2006. The company says it intends to cut 180 to 210 jobs.
The personnel cuts are directed to the corporate sales unit for which redundancy packages have been offered before. Customer information or call centre activities are excluded from the negotiations. Elisa has cut down its personnel by around 2,000 in the last two years.
