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.
Tempus Company, the biggest BMW car seller in Slovakia, closed its showrooms AWT Bavaria and Bavaria on 1 October. The Company announced mass dismissal of 221 employees. The closure is attributed to the end of the contract with BMW Vertriebs Company importing BMW cars to Slovakia. Redundancies will also affect maintenance services departments.
