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.
Airbus has announced plans to create between 500 and 600 jobs in the UK in 2012. The company simultaneously announced that it was to use Korean firms for parts manufacture.
The timeline and location of the job creation has not yet been announced, but jobs are expected to be created in the two largest plants in Broughton, north Wales, and Filton near Bristol.
