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.
The aircraft manufacturer Airbus has announced its intention to recruit around 4,000 employees worldwide in 2013 - including 2,000 in France (see here).
Airbus employs more than 55,000 people worldwide, of over 100 nationalities and it has sold close to 11,600 aircrafts and delivered over 7,200 since its first airliner entered service.
