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.
In April 2013, Polish producer and distributor of seafood products Superfish announced it is to shut down its fish plant in Kukinia near Ustronie Morskie and cut all 189 jobs. The collective dismissal programme will be implemented in May 2013. Piotr Dukowski, director of the company, revealed the company has decided to close the unit, as it is no longer profitable. Superfish was founded in 1990. Currently, the company is a part of the Graal Capital Group.
