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 IT firm Alteca has announced to recruit 220 employees, mainly engineers, for its different sites in France (Paris, Lyon, Lille, Grenoble, Montpellier, Toulouse, Dijon et Nantes). The company recruits only engineers and it currently employs 550 people in France. Alteca expects to reach the threshold of 700 employees by 2020. 126 new job positions were also recorded in 2011.
