This gets people thinking about who might be affected or if theres a part of the project we havent considered, the authors explain. It helps identify potential issues before they turn into ethical problems.

In recent years, U.S. workers in lower-wage jobs like waiting tables or stocking shelves have benefited from minimum wage increases. Women, who tend to be overrepresented in such jobs, often see larger financial gains than men, even though the policies are gender-neutral. However, a new study from the Kellogg School complicates this narrative. It shows that when overall well-being is considered, women may actually benefit less than men from a rise in the minimum wage.

Things look worse when you compare the U.S. with other countries.

What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.
