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.
Online auction company eBay is to expand its Irish operations, after revealing that 150 new jobs are to be created at its European headquarters in Dublin. The additional posts will increase total employment numbers at the Dublin site, between eBay and its sister company Paypal, to more than 1,750. The new positions will be mainly in sales and technical support and are supported by Ireland's Industrial Development Agency (IDA).
