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 French telecommunications company Altice announced that it will open a contact centre in Lamego. The new centre will create 180 new jobs, beyond the existing 80. Randstad, a human resources company, will be responsible for the creation of the centre. The new contact centre will open during the second quarter of 2016. This centre will provide French language telephone assistance.
