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.
Dutch cooperative bank Rabobank announced on 26 July 2012 that it will cut 1,500 to 3,000 jobs in the coming four years.
The firm expects to implement the restructuring without forced dismissals. Reported background is the need to cut costs in the face of novel national and international legislation.
