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 national air carrier Czech Airlines (CSA) has announced 315 redundancies out of 900 staff due to financial difficulties attributed to last year's loss of CZK 922 million (33m euro) and also a considerable drop in the number of passengers from the countries of the former Soviet Union. The job cuts will affect 77 pilots, 172 cabin crew members and 66 posts in administration. Trade Unions have declared a strike alert.
Currently, CSA employs 900 people (230 pilots, 400 stewards and 270 administrative workers)
As of September 2014, no timeline was given.
