Include in your answer a detailed explanation of the ethical theory used. What are some possible consequences of your actions? (Points : 50) I would take the position that the manager is engaging in unethical behavior on two counts. In the first place, the manager is using company time and equipment to e-mail her resume to a competitor. This behavior would not necessarily be unethical if she engaged in this activity from her own computer at home or on a public computer outside of work on her lunch break.
She made the statement that there would not be a conflict of interest between her and her husband role in the company. Ho Ching also publicly disclose the company's annual report showing details of the company's performance. I think this show Ching as being an influential leader because it had never been done before. Ho Ching opened the door's for the company to move more aggressive into the Asian market. 2.
The owner will use her resources in order to supply the shoppers with products that are popular or a brand that is being requested. It is hard for local companies that are not a chain to stay in business so being a respectful store with courteous employees, can help to run a store that will make a profit and want their customers to come

What she likes the least about her job is all the time she has to spend at the store. There are months that she does not even get a day off. What she likes the most about her job is meeting with new people getting to know her customer on a personal level.

It listens and considers the needs, suggestions, and rights of employees that managers are so often, unequipped to do. In movements such as “Business Unionism” (Schwind, Das, Wagar, 2010, p. 496) unions are formed to protect workers, increase wages, improve work conditions, etc. Similar to class action lawsuits a union uses its strength in number to influence corporate and government organizations, in treatment of its employees and laws affecting employees. One employee alone may not have as big an impact. The greater amount of employees in a union rather than standing alone isn’t just beneficial to the company of that union, but it has been historically shown to be beneficial to the economy as a whole.
Document all complaints. If the employer fails to address the situation to one's satisfaction, one may take the case further, to one's state civil rights enforcement agency or to the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Some example of discrimination are, sex, religion, gender, color, and sexual harassment (Bennett-Alexander, Hartman 2007). Discrimination is an unfortunate reality within the workplace in the United State, and title VII and its amendments will help deter the employers from this action. Without title VII employers would be taking advantage of their employees by only hiring who they feel are capable of doing the job whether they can or not, or if they have the qualifications or not. Companies have the right to hire the most qualified person for the job, as long as they are not knowingly discriminating against the person. Other forms of discrimination that happen most often within the workplace are age and disability discrimination, these are also protected under title VII and it amendments, for example, there is age discrimination in employment act (ADEA) and the American with disability act
This is for companies to have equal opportunities for men and women. The federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VII, prohibits employers from discriminating against any persons seeking a job in any field. It not only prohibits discriminating against race, religion, nationality but also gender. I believe the sad reality is that there is still a fair amount of inequality when it comes to a women’s role in the workforce. I believe that if you look at the hard facts and basic statistics you will not be able to ignore the frustration and discrimination that women face on a daily basis in the work place and business were they are working.
The fast growing success of Walmart can be attributed to Sam Walton’s firm belief in customer satisfaction and hard work (Ferrell, 2013, p.328). Implementing policies such as the “10-foot rule” which requires employees to greet the customer by looking them in the eye and asking if they needed help whenever the employee got within 10 feet of the customer was just one way Sam Walton displayed his commitment to his customers (Ferrell, 2013, p.328). Because of Mr. Walton’s strong work ethic and true dedication to his customer’s, Walmart decided early on that there was no need to implement a formal ethics program, rather teach employees to use the examples and policies Mr. Walton had displayed such as the famous “sundown rule” asking employees “why put off until tomorrow what you can do today?”, (Ferrell, 2013, p.329). Along with striving to provide great customer service, Walmart also takes pride in their determination to provide quality products at everyday low prices to the average consumer (Ferrell, 2013, p. 329). With great success comes failure.
