The future of work is an issue everyone is talking about. However, the changes to work caused by the digital age arrived in the present long ago. In this study, the authors examine the challenges posed by this fact as concretely as possible and classify them in terms of social ethics because the values and convictions that have characterised the German job market for decades are still valid today. Even if jobs have changed, the social and personal significance of work remains the same. We should therefore change our perspective of employment from Work 4.0 to Work 1.0.
