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.
Portuguese private healthcare group Lusiadas Saude announced the opening of a new hospital in the city of Braga. The inauguration is expected to take place in December 2019, relying on a team of 400 medical staff. This project results from a partnership with Santa Casa da Misericórdia of Braga and is planned to occupy part of the facilities of the former São Marcos hospital.
Lusíadas Saúde has a network of 12 hospitals and clinics throughout the country. More than one million consultations and 42,000 surgeries per year are provided by the group.
