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.
According to the Lithuanian Labour Exchange (the country's employment office associated to the Ministry of Social Security and Labour) the Lithuanian company Takioji Neris that owns three hotels in Kaunas intends to dismiss 114 workers. According to the company's administration department, the main reason for the dismissals is the reorganisation of the company. The company is being sold to another owner, who will continue its activity and re-employ 80 dismissed workers.
