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.
On 3 January 2010, a furniture and home accessories company Swedwood ( a subsidiary of IKEA) announced plans to hire 200 workers at its new plant in Orla in May 2011. The company plans to complete the construction by then. Primarily the company will produce fiberboards, but it also plans to build a lacquer department and sawmill.
