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.
Advanced Supply Chain, a UK based logistics firm, has announced that it expects to create 150 jobs over the next year in its newly opened operations centre in Birstall, Leeds. The site that was initially intended to provide just overspill storage is now expected to be a fully functional operations centre for the clothing sector.
