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.
Financial services provider Clearstream announced the creation of 100 new jobs at their Cork site by the end of 2020. The company plans to recruit employees with business, commerce and finance qualifications, over the next 12 to 18 months. According to the management, the business expansion shows the company's commitment to the local community, as the latter constitutes a great ecosystem for the sector of activity and for the talent pool. IDA Ireland has supported the jobs measure.
Subsidiary of Deutsche Börse, the company provides fund processing, product development and several administrative functions and it handles around €2-million-worth transactions per month across 48 jurisdictions.
