Healthcare settings need to develop a clear written workplace policy stating that harassment and discrimination are not tolerated and establish a process for hearing complaints while maintaining confidentially by appointing an appropriate ‘Contact Officer’ to deal with complaints. If we are going to work harmoniously with people from diverse backgrounds, we need to be tolerant and respectful about values, beliefs and religious practices, which may be very different from our own. The more we learn about other cultures, the more we can put ourselves in other people’s shoes and respect their position. When you and a co-worker do not agree, try looking at things from their perspective. (DOE&T
I am the type of person who wants to know everything and be the best at every task I perform, and doing the necessary work to identify the appropriate source of information will make that task just a bit easier. Conclusion I believe that the role of the knowledge worker has changed, thanks mostly to technology. Most people have become so reliant on technology that they have become lazy. But the true knowledge workers do what is needed in search of more knowledge, and those are the real assets to the organization. It has been proven that knowledge workers cannot be effective if they are micromanaged or told how they need to complete their tasks (Hammer, 2004).
In order to make a decision in this dilemma the stakeholders needed to be identified. Stakeholders are people who are directly affected by the situation. In this simulation the stakeholders are as follows: shareholders, Chief Legal Officer, VP Human Resources, Manager, Jamal Moore, and Aaron Webb. After identifying the stakeholders the manager must identify his or her duties regarding the situation. In this case it is the manager’s duty not to reward employee’s who violate the code of conduct or the law and ensure privileged information is not made public ("Ethicsgame.com", 2012).
Analysis of Ethical Dilemma PSY/610 Introduction It is important for psychologists and other professionals to demonstrate ethical behavior when working with clients/patients, students, and colleagues. Unfortunately ethical behavior is not always applied in situations where it is appropriate and as a result those individuals on the receiving end are treated unfairly. This paper will attempt to confront a situation where two graduate assistants are receiving unethical treatment from a researcher who is currently leading the three studies they are working on. This paper will include ethical considerations for the scenario and notate the ethical violations made on the behalf of the senior researcher. Ethical Considerations Thinking before we act or speak is crucial while in the workplace.
Unit 4222-206 The role of the social care worker Outcome 1 Unerstand working relationships in health and social care 1. The way in which a working relationship is different would be because of the boundaries, professional codes of conduct, employer policies and procedures. In your working relationships you would be friendly and have a different approach. The way that we relate to those we support should be guided by clear boundaries. You would not share information about your personal life as you would with your friends.
One of the main concerns in any motivational program is ethical issues. Motivational practices can have negative impact on work ethics and increase unethical behaviors in the workplace. Ethics in workplace Employees have to do their jobs in an ethical manner. There is no universal definition for ethics, however, De George has stated that :Ethics is a systematic attempt to make sense of our individual and social moral experience, in such a way as to determine rules that ought to govern human conduct, the values worth pursuing, and the character traits deserving development in life (De George, 2006, p.19-20). Business ethics is the guiding principles on what is the “right” or appropriate way to behave in a situation (Jones & George, 2008).
Many professionals have created rules and guidelines to follow when ethical questions or dilemmas arise in the workplace. Interpreters have followed this pattern, as the RID and AVLIC have Codes of Ethics. Although these guidelines are helpful, they do not cover every situation. Interpreters must not only follow the Code of Ethics, but must also have strong personal morals as well as ethical judgment to be tested in the workplace. This essay will cover a situation in which an interpreter is faced with an ethical dilemma; whether or not to turn in a hearing student they catch cheating.
The Carter case wants to define it as all people who are suffering and they are trying to grant doctors the right to cause their death. It’s not about choice, it’s about who is gaining the right to do this." 1 That is, his view is that the core issue is whether doctors should be able to legally murder anyone they wish to. Schadenberg's comments indicate precisely why legislation governing physician assisted suicide should include precise limits and controls to prevent abuse. 2011-NOV-14: Demonstration outside the courthouses: Demonstrators with the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPCC) gathered in front of the court house.
Physician assisted suicide should not be legalized for the simple fact many would give up and take the easy way out. There is currently a pervasive assumption that if assisted suicide and/or voluntary euthanasia (AS/VE) were to legalized, then doctors would take responsibility for making the decision that these interventions were indicated, for prescribing the medication, and (in euthanasia) for administering it .Richard Huxable remarks “that homicide law encompasses various crimes, so prosecutors can choose charges to suit the circumstances. Yet one thing is clear: mercy killing is still killing, equally, murder is murder” Physician assisted suicide is nothing more than cold blooded
Then there are the people who feel that if people who are suffering have the right to stop life sustaining-treatment then why other suffering patients can’t ask physicians to give them life –ending treatments. Physician assisted suicide has been a big debate here in the America. In 1997 the Us Supreme Court said that there is no constitutional right to physician assisted suicide and the State Legistratures may choose if they want to vote to legalize physician assisted suicide then the Oregon board of Pharmacy put in an order requiring physicians to document if this is for an assisted suicide. In 1999 Oregon became the only US state that voted to legalize physician assisted suicide and in January 1998 one doctor announced his or her participation in the assisted suicide act. There are several countries that currently allow one or the other types of physician assisted suicide.
