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.
Polish steel processing company Vimex has announced that it will increase its employment capacity by 24% which implies that 60 new jobs will be created at the unit in Radom. Vimex is looking for machine operators, factory managers, lorry drivers, customer service staff and sales specialists. The restructuring programme is associated with the fact that the demand for Vimex construction reinforcement has been growing since 2012.
Vimex produces steel reinforcement for the construction industry. Currently, the company employs 250 people.
