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.
The 110 employees of ATM in Maaseik have lost their jobs after the commercial court of Tongeren has confirmed the bankruptcy of the auto company. With its activities in construction and maintenance of trailers and tippers, ATM has been hard hit by the crisis.
Six month ago, ATM was placed under juridical protection. Unfortunately, because no prospective buyer had been found, bankruptcy was unavoidable.
