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 Slovenian car manufacturer Revoz, owned by French group Renault, will employ 200 new workers by June 2017. Revoz started the production of Clio 4 model in February 2017 and this has already led to the creation of 300 new jobs and the re-establishment of a half-night shift last year (see previous factsheet). Moreover, since the company plans to increase the production of vehicles by 46 per cent in comparison to last year, 200 new workers will be hired in the next few months and full night shifts will be introduced. Revoz now employs 2,500 employees.
