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.
Selciatori e Posatori, the Italian cooperative operating in the building construction sector, is to close with the loss of 120 jobs.
According to the cooperative representatives, the closure is mainly due to the negative effects of the economic crisis in the building sector.
The trade unions have required the involvement of the public authorities in order to find alternative solutions to the closure.
