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.
Watch manufacturer Ice-Watch plans to relocate its production from China to Belgium, creating 120 jobs.
According to the management, the relocation is to enhance the watches’ quality and to keep the seal of quality "Made in Belgium".
The timeline for the restructuring plans is not yet available.
