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.
Danish pig slaughter house Jutland Meat was declared bankrupt on February 8th 2013. 230 employees at the slaughter house will lose their jobs as a result of the bankruptcy, but received their salary payments for February.
It is reported that there are fears that the competitiveness of the company may not be restored – not even through the restructuring.
