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.
Computer programming consultancy company Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has initiated employer-employee negotiations aiming to cut up to 130 jobs in Finland. According to the company, the internal restructuring is necessitated by changes in the consultancy work for one large customer due to a reorganisation of the customer's organisation. As of May 2017, the time frame of the restructuring is not yet known.
