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.
On 6 July 2007 Bosch Rexroth announced the creation of 360 new jobs in Nuremberg. The company, a leading producer of automotive and industrial technology, is investing in the production of large wind-turbine gear units. Furthermore, the production of components for gasoline direct injection is to be extended. For these two projects Bosch is planning to invest 280 million Euros in its two plants in Nuremberg by 2013. The plants currently employ approximately 2,500 people.
