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.
Kiinteistömaailma, a Finnish real estate company, plans to recruit 200 new staff members in Finland during the upcoming 12 months. Half of the new positions will be located in the capital area and the other half in other parts of the country. The company has grown rapidly over the past 6 months. According to the company, the recruitment process will be challenging since the sector suffers from a staff shortage. Unlike in other Nordic countries, in Finland, education of real estate agents is not systematised which makes it difficult for Finnish real estate companies to find a qualified workforce.
