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.
Slovak state-owned freight railway company Zeleznicna Spolocnost Cargo Slovakia (ZSSK Cargo) announced that it will dismiss up to 500 employees in 2013. The new collective agreement between the management and the trade unions includes this provision. The original restructuring plan referred to 600 redundancies. For a previously announced restructuring event see ZSSK Cargo–2011a.
