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.
The management of Zalai Baromfifeldolgozó announced the liquidation of the company and the direct dismissal of all 150 employees, starting from 10 May 2013. During its short operation (see Zalai Baromfifeldolgozó-2011), the company accumulated HUF 1 billion (EUR 3,3 million) dept. Those employees that resign before the closure of the company will receive the full salary but the remainder of the staff will get support from the National Wage Guarantee Fund (bérgarancia alap).
