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.
Polish delivery company Delta Kurier has announced that it will increase its workforce by 50% by the end of 2017, meaning that 200 new jobs will be created. The company introduces new courier services (e.g. Same Day Delivery) competing for customers on the growing e-commerce market.
Delta Kurier was founded in 2001 in Warsaw. Since 2014 the company has been operating nationwide. Currently, the company employs 400 people, and provides services to approximately 1,500 companies across Poland.
