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 HR and payroll support company Immedis is to hire 200 people by the end of 2019. The new jobs are in tax, compliance, IT, software development, marketing, finance, and sales. Immedis is part of the Taxback Group, and already employs 170 people in Ireland, USA and Australia. Some of Immedis' key clients include Uber, Wayfair, First Derivatives, NYIT, DCC and Abbvie. The expansion at Immedis is facilitated by a €25 million investment from Scottish Equity Partners. Immedis was established in 2016.
