“…Secondly, while robotics technology has been around for decades in the industry, controlled environments for experimental research have thus far not been available to behavioral researchers. Using field-in-the-lab experiments in learning factories (Kandler et al, 2021;Ströhlein et al, 2022) offers a promising experimental paradigm for this line of research.…”

IntroductionHuman-machine interaction has raised a lot of interest in various academic disciplines, but it is still unclear how human-human interaction is affected when robots join the team. Robotics has already been integral to manufacturing since the 1970s. With the integration of AI, however, they are increasingly working alongside humans in shared spaces.MethodsWe conducted an experiment in a learning factory to investigate how a change from a human-human work context to a hybrid human-robot work context affects participants' valuation of their production output as well as their pro-sociality among each other. Learning factories are learning, teaching, and research environments in engineering university departments. These factory environments allow control over the production environment and incentives for participants.ResultsOur experiment suggests that the robot's presence increases sharing behavior among human workers, but there is no evidence that rewards earned from production are valued differently.DiscussionWe discuss the implications of this approach for future studies on human-machine interaction.

Die zunehmende Digitalisierung der Arbeitswelt stellt Mitarbeitende und Führungskräfte vor neue Herausforderungen. Kompetenzanforderungen ändern sich, die Personaleinsatzplanung wird komplexer und ein digitalisiertes Shopfloor Management wird benötigt. In diesem Fachbeitrag werden die Ergebnisse einer Umfrage zu den Themen Kompetenzen, Personaleinsatzplanung und Shopfloor Management vorgestellt. Dabei werden zentrale Faktoren für eine hohe Akzeptanz zur erfolgreichen Durchführung von Shopfloor Management ermittelt. Ein wesentlicher Faktor hierbei ist die Führungskraft und ihre Moderation der Shopfloor-Management-Besprechungen entsprechend der wertebasierten Unternehmenskultur. Welche Kompetenzen hierbei benötigt werden, zeigt dieser Beitrag.
