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.
On 25 April 2012, Alain Guillou, the HR Director of ship building group DCNS announced the recruitment of 700 people in 2012. The positions are mainly engineers and managers.
According to Guillou the industry has a five year visibility in its order book, and as a result it was a lot less exposed to short term fluctuations on the job market.
DCNS employs 12,000 employees worldwide.
