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.
British telecoms company Vodafone is to expand its employment in Ireland with 113 new positions across technology and networks, customer service, HR, finance, sales and marketing roles.
Of the 113 positions, 57 will be permanent roles, while 51 will be for temporary contracts of either one or two-year duration.
Vodafone, which already employs 1,100 people in Ireland, plans to grow its workforce as part of a nationwide network investment to support its existing customers and to meet demand.
The jobs announcement was welcomed by Minister for Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation, Richard Bruton.
