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.
Gaarden, the first national network of landscape gardeners, officially announced a second fundraising of €2 million expected in early 2018 and the recruitment of 150 employees by the end of 2018. The €2 million funds will support the national development of the start-up with the objective of exceeding €10 million of turnover in 3 years. Created in 2015, Gaarden offers its services in many cities of France and aims to become the national reference in the maintenance of gardens and green spaces. The start-up employs currently more than 50 employees. Gaarden aims to consolidate 200 employees under its brand by 2018, and intends to continue its development to cover the entirety of France.
