workplace Ethics Betty scenario

This is not, and it never will be, one of the ethical practices that pertain to hiring new employees in the history of any organization.

By providing Bill, her best buddy, the questionnaires, Lorna will have hurt the business. In order to hire the finest candidate who meets the organization’s needs and standards, the company conducted the interview. Despite the fact that Bill is a friend of hers, it is unconstitutional for him to reveal the company’s recruitment secrets. (Sims, 1992) The company will not be in position of considering the best person because Bill will have the requirements for the interview and therefore be it she is qualified or not, he will be awarded the post but he might not be fit to work towards achieving the company’s objective.

Betty scenario

The issue of Betty arriving late for job due to oversleeping and claiming for traffic is unethical. It is true that Betty is hardworking and devoted to the company but the fact she has late for does not apply to being dishonest even to the manager. Her ability and handwork towards success of the company is enough to make her honest to the manager. It is unhealthy for Betty to lie when the true nature of what made her late for job is natural. This create trust issues with the employees(Sims, 1992). The employees need to be trust worthy and therefore giving a wrong reason for universal factor is not trustworthy.

Tom and Suzy scenario

According to the ethics of a workplace Tom and Suzy will have done unethical kind of behavior. It is the demand of the company for the two to assemble the computers according to the required policies by the company. This is being greed and is not healthy character for a workplace(Stead, 1990). They should stick to the instruction and demands of the company and work at the phase that the company policies provide. Since the company has given them the mandate to be in charge, then they should take the mandate to ensure still the farewell of the company demands are met so that there could be transparency in the working.
