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.
Finnish information services company M-Brain has announced the reduction of 32 jobs after the conclusion of employer-employee negotiations in Finland. The reductions are spread over different divisions of the company: 1 person is cut from M-Brain Oy, 10 from M-Brain Insight, 14 from M-Brain Media and 7 from the Global Intelligence Alliance Group. The reductions are due to M-Brain's recent acquisition of the Global Intelligence Alliance Group which demanded restructuring of the company.
