How will the development of Industry 4.0 technologies affect sustainable development and corporate social responsibility?
Dear Researchers, Scientists, Friends,
Industry 4.0 technologies such as automation, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things offer companies enormous optimisation potential, but what consequences will they have for sustainability and corporate social responsibility? For the purposes of this discussion, I have formulated the following research thesis: Industry 4.0 technologies can improve efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of companies, but they can also lead to job losses and deepen social inequalities if not properly managed. In light of this, the development of Industry 4.0 technologies gives companies the opportunity to improve production efficiency, which can lead to lower resource consumption and fewer emissions. On the other hand, automation can lead to job losses, especially in traditional industries, which raises questions about companies' responsibility towards society. These transformations require a balanced approach that takes into account both economic benefits and social and environmental challenges, such as the need for employees to adapt to the new realities of the labour market.
