Question
Please answer case 2 Instructions (Large Class) Working alone, read each case below and determine the extent to which the company's action in each case was ethical. The instructor will use a show of hands to determine the extent to which students believe the case represents an ethical dilemma (high or low moral intensity) and the extent to which the main people or company in each Incident acted ethically. CASE ONE A large European bank requires all employees to open a bank account with that bank. The bank deposits employee paycheques to those accounts. The bank explains that this is a formal policy which all employees agree to at the time of hire. Furthermore, failure to have an account with the bank shows disloyalty, which could limit the employee's career advancement opportunities with the bank. Until recently, the bank has reluctantly agreed to deposit paycheques to accounts at other hanks for a small percentage of employees. Now. bank executives want to reinforce the policy. They announced that employees have three months to open an account with the bank or face disciplinary action. CASE TWO A 16-year-old hired as an office administrator at a small import services company started posting her thoughts about the job on her Facebook site. After her first day, she wrote, "first day at work, omg!!" So dull!!" Two days later, she complained "all I do is shred holepunch n scan paper!! omg!" Two weeks later she added "im so totally board!!!" These comments were intermixed with the other usual banter about her life. Her Facebook site did not mention the name of the company where she worked. Three weeks after being hired, the employee was called into the owner's office, where he fired her for the comments on Facebook, then had her escorted from the building. The owner argues that these comments put the company in a bad light, and her "display of disrespect and dissatisfaction undermined the relationship and made it untenable."Explanation / Answer
Solution: What the company did was not fully ethical because company's main aim is to make profit and to get work done. If a person says that his job is boring then let he say becuse he is doing his own work rather he enjoy it or say boring. Its his own thoughts. Rather firing him, the company has to make some other decision or can also do something to make his work more enjoyable because employees are the important part of the company. So in last the punishment given to employee was not ethical.
