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.
Oe 12 January 2010, Herlev Hospital, one of the large hospitals surrounding Copenhagen, announced that up to 160 employees will be made redundant due to bad economy and a deficit of €27 million. The redundancies will mainly affect nurses, health care workers and porters. The region, the Capital Region, has established a jobbank in order to help the redundant staff into new jobs.
