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.
In May 2003 Crisplant fired 200. Now they have managed to change the strategy of redundances so that so far around 150 will be directly dismissed. 108 employees will continue to work. One week in work, one week of further training and one week they will receive a daily social benefit. This way Crisplant hopes to keep the employees until the recession is over and production will increase again.
