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.
Robert Wiseman Dairies is to cut up to 214 jobs across the UK. The announcement comes after an operational review and company plans to open a £15m distribution centre in Wiltshire, in November. The cuts will affect 93 staff in Okehampton, 88 staff in Bridgewater and 33 staff in Bristol. The company will consult the unions in an attempt to keep redundancies to a minimum and offer relocation packages where possible.
