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.
German discount supermarket chain Lidl announced its plans to create 200 new jobs in its new distribution centre in Turzyn near Wyszków (the Mazowieckie Voivodeship). The centre is expected to be operational at the beginning of September 2013. During the first period of its activity, the centre will supply 57 stores.
The chain has over 10,000 stores across Europe, inlcuding 540 stores and 6 distribution centres across Poland.
