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.
Budget airline Jet2 has announced plans to create 1,700 jobs across its UK operations. 180 pilot jobs, 900 cabin crew and more than 700 ground staff positions will be made available across the nine UK airports which Jet2 operate from. The jobs follow recent high levels of growth for the business which has also expanded its fleet of aircraft. There is no information about when the jobs will be filled, though recruitment is currently underway with a series of recruitment roadshows announced throughout August and September 2017.
