The problems and perspectives of ethics based approach development of AI algorithms are presented in the article. The issue of ethical limitations and responsibilities of AI software developers during the life cycle of algorithms is examined. The analyses of corporate AI ethics guidelines and precedents in their application for analyst engineers' professional activities serve us empirical examples. The authors reveal potential impact of algorithms on different spheres of human lives such as education, medicine, enterprises, etc. in connection to rising control power of employer over the employees. Potential algorithms failures and engineers' illegal labour practices are also considered. Such examples and possibilities of ethical violations need to be accessibly documented and introduced to AI developers departments. The terms of potential engineers and employers interactions are to be set with the option of mutual assessments and tools for algorithm maintenance checkup.
