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.
Diebold Nixdorf, a US-German provider of financial and retail ATM and POS services, software development and IT services for banking and retail, has opened its new Global IT Operations Centre in Kosice, Slovakia. According to the representative of the company the decision to go to Kosice was based on the well developed IT environment available there. Up to 280 employees will be employed in the Centre by the end of 2017. The business expansion is attributed to the company's plan to consolidate its IT centres to fewer places where to provide centralised IT services to clients.
