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.
Magyar Telekom is to make redundant 500 employees. Most of them will leave the company by the end of 2012, and the rest in 2013. This measure is part of a greater cost efficiency programme announced by the management.
As a result of the negotiations with the social partners, the company intends to increase the salaries of the remaining employees by 4 % as of 1 April 2013.
