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.
Železnična spoločnosť Slovensko (ZSSK), a public passenger transport railway company, will dismiss 231 out of 4,900 employees till the end of May 2011. Dismissals are attributed to the implementation of the recovery plan for railways. The job cuts will reduce the operation costs by about € 880,000 in 2011. Transport on several dozens of scheduled lines will be reduced and some regional lines will be even terminated.
