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.
WorldCom has announced a new restructuring plan cutting 5,000 more jobs. WorldCom is since last July under the American bankruptcy law (Chapter 11).
WorldCom wants to reduce its operating costs by 2.5 billion dollars a year. This strategy results in the renegociation of over 2,600 subcontractors contrats.
This redundancy plan is the third of WorldCom since June 2002.
