Organizational Ethics and CSR What do you think about the notion presented by Terris that Lockheed’s ethics program does little to prevent ethical breaches at the highest level of the organization? Ethics is a crucial concept, especially in an organization setting, as it is a determinant of the trust between the stakeholders such as customers and investors to an organization. In the year 1997, a morals awareness program was introduced. The emphasis on practicing morals behaviour in Lockheed is essential, and it should be in place to ensure the trust is upheld in the organization. The employees at Lockheed Martin maintain that ethics is advantageous to the entire organization. Besides, the management of Lockheed has constantly campaigned for moral practices where they consider as the topmost quality of the company. The ethic plan does not, however, do adequately to bar violation of ethics, especially at the top administration of the organization as the program entirely concentrates on the training of employees. The program only stresses on business conduct standards as well as preparing the staff members to accept and react…

The Ethics of Hunger Summary In Clancy Cash Harrison’s The Ethics of Hunger presentation, it is clear that hunger is not just a scenario of inadequate food or lack of food; it is something more. Harrison claims that it is unethical to address hunger without asking the right questions. For example, it is unethical to provide medical nutrition therapy or awareness before identifying the food insecurity situation. She outlines the principles and standards that ensure the right code of ethics is upheld when dealing with hunger. Nutritionists should fairly assess the validity and the applicability of the scientific evidence. They should also make decisions based on the evidence provided respecting and caring for their patients. Nutrition professionals should comprehend the influence culture and moral beliefs have on people to help them anticipate and manage their clients. There are several causes of food insecurity, but most of the are situational; they occur as a result of the change. Harrison is overly trying to express the point that hunger crisis should be handled ethically. She digs deeper into how food insecurity should…

Use of clearances to systems for unethical purposes Hello Davon Moore The former Satsuma police officer had the role of protecting the citizens of the particular state. It is a bad idea for the officer to use his clearances to the systems for unethical purposes. There is a need to keep a database updated always. Though the former police officer was not ethical on his actions, it is upon the owners of computers to ensure their safety and make sure computers do not fall into the wrong hands. As a computer user, it is essential to keep the computer commandments which govern all users (Spinello, 2012). The safety of computers can only be enhanced when everyone makes it as a responsibility to keep computers safe. A computer is a powerful tool which majorly used to store data of all kinds, ethics should be practiced at all times by everyone.

Business Ethics Discussion Board 1 Unit 4 The agility nature of technology has contributed to the increased number of obsolete technology products, which often end up as e-waste. E-waste is considered as a highly multifaceted waste stream containing both very scanty and valuable plus very toxic substances. However, the majority of consumers are unknowledgeable of the existence of harmful components in these materials. This is where corporate social responsibility comes in to protect the environment and the general community from the impacts of the toxic wastes by considering the discussion below. It should be considered that there are no safe ways of discarding obsolete technology products. Meaning manufacturers should be required to develop 100% recyclable products whose components can be recovered, refurbished, repaired, and reused upon recycling. Recycling is an overwhelming process since it requires the involved party to collect, transport, process, refurbish, and dispose of electronic waste, making it costly despite the existence of programs that offer “free” recycling to the consumer. Besides, recycling depends on existing state policies and legislation, commodity prices, available recycling facilities, and social preferences.…

The allied-health experts play a pivotal role in delivering services about the identification, evaluation, diseases and disorder stoppage, dietary and nutrition amenities, rehabilitating, and managing health structures Saxon et al., (2014).

In all health and allied health professionals are primarily steadfast…

Ethics in Project Management It is important to consider ethical standards during project planning, or else the whole project would be improper. The increasing scandals in financial corruption, collusions, and conflicts at organizations demand considerations of ethics before commencing a project (Ljungblom & Lennerfors, 2018). The PMI ethical standards that apply at the project planning level include honesty, responsibility, fairness, respect, accountability, and integrity. Honesty is a crucial ethic to consider when planning a project. Abraham Lincoln stated that no human being has a good memory to become a successful liar because lies often trap people and consequently lose their trust. When planning a project, it suffices to have all stakeholders in the project tell the truth. Misleading and half-truths do not have ground in the planning of a project (Ljungblom & Lennerfors, 2018). Dilemmas arise when working with groups of conflicting interests. For instance, a project that involves influential executives may put pressure to ignore customers’ attention. The PMI ethical standards during project planning consider the project management professionals (PMP) responsible for their success or failure in making decisions…

Ethical or moral principles The post develops an issue of concern about ethical/moral principles. Does an ethical or moral perspective concern with how right or wrong an action or purely whether an action is right or wrong. Where do we draw a line of ethical actions, and from what point of view? Applying different approaches to ethics, one can derive different and opposing moral judgments from the ethical. The case established in the post develops initially as an apparent ethical dilemma. From many perspectives, the action has different consequences for different people. The decision rule within the consequentialist approach to ethics, as a normative theory, creates an element of pluralism and thus the need for a psychosocial perspective. In 2017, Franceschi-Bicchierai established that the hacker didn’t alert the customers of the company about the data breach for two months, during which data breach occurred. From a psychological perspective, one can examine the psychosocial factors that played out within the action and generate an ethical judgment of the action. Reply to Post 4 The post develops a general argument that ethical…

Military Ethics Military ethics pertain to a wide range of issues, such as the conduct of soldiers and the supervisors and the relations between these entities and their civilian leaders as well as matters relating to war. For many years, there has been an ongoing debate on the category of ethics under which military ethics belongs to. This paper argues that military ethics is a combination of professional ethics and normative ethics. In his article titled “International Justice and Military,” Jokić (2018) explores the various arguments presented regarding military ethics. One of the arguments presented in this article is about military ethics being part of professional ethics. However, the article under review posits that military ethics is not part of professional ethics. On this note, Jokić (2018) argues that professional ethics are not a matter of ethics but policy. Professional ethics comprises the rules and regulations that guide the action and conducts of people operating in a certain field of practice. Examples of individuals who are guided by professional ethics include doctors and lawyers. On this note, a doctor can…
