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.
SIF Transilvania, a hotel group based in Romania, is to close, resulting in job losses for 104 employees. The 104 announced lay offs will be across three hotels, located in Covasna in the Centre Region.
The reason for the closure is the intention of the company to temporarily close for renovation of the three hotels, an investment estimated at 40 million euros. Despite the temporary closure, the lay offs are permanent.
