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.
JP Sá Couto, a manufacturer of computers, wants to expand its factory in Matosinhos and create 320 new jobs.
The municipality of Matosinhos will offer (free of charge for 25 years) a municipal property to the company. The agreement is to be established under the proactive anti-crisis measures adopted by the Municipality in March 2009, whose aim is to support companies building new plants producing computers, boards and other computer products.
The project will involve an investment of €11 million.
