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.
LyondellBasell, a global manufacturer of chemicals and polymers, is to cut 105 jobs (out of 900) in its plant located in Ferrara.
The job cuts should mainly affect the Research and Development division and they will start in March 2013. Moreover, the company has announced cuts in investments.
