Human Values at Work
TRICK for organizations in the age of AI.
What makes an intelligent workplace a human one? One hundred Creative Commons readings examine AI, employee relationships, autonomy, collaboration and wellbeing. Workplace evidence is clearly distinguished from direct evidence about parents and families.
The whole person belongs in view
Good work.
A fuller life.
What can employers, employees and families learn from the evidence together? This collection places Trust, Respect, Independence, Collaboration and Kindness beside decisions about work, care and organizational life.
TRICK provides an editorial reading map. These studies do not jointly test the complete framework. Evidence about workers is identified separately from research directly examining parents, caregiving or work–family relationships.
Read the country, sector, population, study design and follow-up. A survey association, short experiment or policy comparison cannot establish what every employer should do or how every family will benefit.
Know what each reading studies
- Working-family evidence3
- Directly examines work and family life, parenting, caregiving or employment policies for families.
- Workplace evidence97
- Examines workers, organizations or AI at work. Participants are not necessarily parents; family benefits are not established by this evidence alone.
Each reading has one primary TRICK home. Specific studies may cross several values; editorial placement is not an employer rating or a claim of organizational endorsement.
