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 dairy Group EURIAL has decided to create a creamery factory to manufacture mozzarella cheese in the west of France, in Herbignac, near Nantes. The factory will create 100 jobs and will use the milk provided by one thousand suppliers (30,000 tons). The Eurial group will make an investment of EUR 56 million with almost 40% of it coming from subsidies: State aid (EUR 3 million), EU (EUR 8 million) and local autorities (EUR 9 million). The factory EURIAL Herbignac should start its activity in January 2008.
