Abstract

Nowadays, many repetitive tasks are being automated with the help of technology. In the future, technology will move away from this supporting role and even take on tasks that only humans can now perform. It is becoming clear that human-machine teams will become the norm. In these teams, machines will also make decisions when confronted with predictable processes, while human employees will have to react in the event of new, complex and unforeseen situations. Workers need to be ready for this human-machine collaboration so that they perceive technologies like artificial intelligence as an enrichment for their working lives, rather than as a threat. The development of social and technical design is possible by strengthening the system of values embedded in it, based on paramount attention to the rights and needs of all employees. An understanding of sociotechnical principles, goals, and principles will contribute to finding answers to many common future problems
