An employer can communicate clear expectations and then regularly check the employee’s successful completion of tasks according to specifications.

Companies can use telecommuting to recruit and retain employees who wish to facilitate work-life balance, or employees from locations that are not within daily travel distance to the facility.

Making free or inexpensive food available in the workplace is a recruiting and retention tool. The employer may also hope that if food is available on the premises, employees will spend less time getting meals and more time working. It might be considered unethical to try to control employees’ time and limit social interactions away from work.

Any new office building could incorporate shared and flexible work space to allow for greater collaboration among employees. Less space would be dedicated to individual offices. A manager would also want to include collaborative technology that allows employees to easily contact customers, vendors, and other suppliers.

Applicants who are interested in working fewer hours will be encouraged to apply for a job they would have to pass up if it were full-time.

Gig work allows flexible scheduling, the ability to work for more than one company at a time, and the ability to work more or fewer hours each week, as desired.

Advantages include reduced payroll taxes, reduced cost of benefits, and the ability to use and, hence, pay for workers only when they are needed.

The development of artificial intelligence allows robots to act on their own much more often, meaning humans do not always control them.

Likely yes, for example in the area of self-driving cars, where we have already (in 2018) experienced a pedestrian’s death caused by a self-driving car.

False. Companies have no such duty.
