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 group Air France is launching a new low-cost company, called "Boost", that will start its activities in the Autumn 2017 for medium-haul traffic before extending its activities to long-haul traffic in the Summer 2018. Therefore, the group will recruit 500 flight attendants. The company will be launched after receiving the agreement of the largest pilots' union within Air France (SNPL AF) that should give its green light before mid-June.
