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.
Airline company Jet2 has announced that it is to create 200 new jobs based at Stansted Airport. The airport is the area's major employer and council representatives have welcomed the creation of these new jobs. Approximately half of the positions available will be for cabin crew and the remaining positions will be for pilots and various assorted ground crew roles. The company will be based at the airport from Spring 2017. Jet2 will start flights from Stansted on 30 March 2017 and will fly to 21 holiday destinations in the summer and 12 in the winter.
