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.
Czech hosiery machine manufacturer Uniplet Třebíč, employing nearly 400 people, is ready to hire another 257 workers, especially machine specialists. The Třebíč district has seen a sharp rise in labour force demand. Employers are looking there for 1,000 people — that is a triple number in comparison with the same period last year. In this economically poor district, about 6,700 people are unemployed — one third of all jobless citizens in the Vysočina region.
