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.
IT service company CGI Norge is reducing its operations staff by 60 employees in Norway. IT operations will instead be carried out from Sweden. The company currently employs 540 in Norway. No severance packages are linked to the dismissals, but all redundant employees will be offered professional assistance to retrain or find a new job.
