Abstract

This chapter studies the changing communication environments of the modern business world. Our focus is on the new media that provide companies and individual people new possibilities for recovering from the economic depression. But, they are not only opportunities, but also threats as well. We take an ethical approach to the phenomena in focus. Data protection law plays an important role here. What are the affects of communication environments on an employee’s working conditions and on his or her responsibilities and legal rights? Is Labor Law keeping up with the speed of development? This is another big issue.
