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 construction company Cardinal Edifice has announced the recruitment of 200 employees by 2021. Considering the 52 people already recruited, the company will still employ 148 people.
In three years the builder has recruited 300 employees to reach a workforce of 700 people and a turnover of €135 million. The company aims to become one of the leaders in the construction of wooden structures. It has obtained several major construction projects, including the construction of the wooden Olympic Village for the Olympics 2024, which require this important recruitment plan.
