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.
German car parts manufacturer Continental Automotive has announced the intention to hire 600 engineers for a new technology centre located in Timisoara (Romania).
With a total investment of 20 million euro, the centre will provide laboratory testing services. At present, Continental employs 1,800 engaged in the production of electrical equipment for engines and vehicles.
