Abstract

Digitalization and automation are changing industrial work by bringing a variety of new digital solutions to the factory floor. Digital solutions are primarily developed to make industrial work more efficient and productive. However, to ensure user acceptance and sustainability, the aspect of ethics should be included in the design process. The aim of this research is to increase the role of ethics in design by providing a set of ethical guidelines for designing digital solutions to support industrial work. As a result of a co-creation process, we present twelve ethical guidelines related to six ethical themes, with examples of how to apply them in practice. In addition, we propose a practical approach to help a project consortium in co-creating project-specific ethical guidelines. Both the co-creation process and the guidelines can be applied in the design and development of new digital solutions for industrial work, but also in other work contexts.
