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.
Electronic manufacturing Services provider Sanmina-SCI has announced the creation of 150 new jobs by the end of 2011 in Tatabánya (Hungary). Due to the crisis the company has lost 40% of its productivity, and had to dismiss 500 people in 2010. Recently the company has received new orders so the productivity is increasing again. The company's turnover is returning to the level before the crisis.
