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.
Autolib' electric car service in Paris (Ile-de-France) is to recruit 600 ambassadors whose job is to provide assistance for the renting of electric cars. The municipality of Vaucresson (Hauts-de-Seine), where the Autolib' headquarters are located, organized a recruitment session on 25 January 2012.
No diploma is required for the job, but candidates need to have had a driving license for at least two years. Autolib' ambassadors will be on minimum wage (1398.37 € gross per month) but have chances to move to other positions within the company later on. As of January 2012, there is no information on where the jobs will be created.
