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.
Hit, the largest Slovenian company in the gambling business, has announced the loss of 200 jobs (out of 2,200) by the end of 2009. As a consequence of management decisions, the company has entered into quite severe trading problems in 2009; at the end of 2008 a EUR 4.1 million loss was reported. One of the internal restructuring measures is to reduce the number of employees by at least 100 persons during 2009.
