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 German company Spreadshirt, a producer of custom-made T-shirts, will move some of its production operations from Leipzig to Legnica. As a result of this, the company announced on 26 March 2007 that it will hire 200 people at its new branch in Legnica by the end of 2008. Until the end of 2007 the company will employ 100 people.
