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.
Scania, the Swedish maker of trucks and buses, plans to build a bus factory in Redzików (in the Słupska Special Economic Zone), employing 1,400 persons. Scania already employs 670 workers at another Polish bus factory, in Słupsk. Scania has come to the conclusion that the latter facility is not suitable for modernisation and that it makes better business sense to build an entirely new plant.
