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.

The roles are described as being in sales, operating staff and technical engineering. DocuSign helps companies go fully digital by automating manual, paper-based processes.
