Ethics Game Dilemma
The ethical concerns presented in the simulation are whether to cautionclients and what material to deliver about the toxin in the distributed and sold products. There was likewise aproblemconcerning how to handle the currentFood and Drug Administration (FDA) standards that distressand upset the sale of goods in the United States in addition tovarious foreign countries.
In coming up with a decision on how to ethically solve the problem, I initially garnered all the facts, and also assessed the relevant areas proficiency as well as missing, skills, knowledge, experience, or know-how in regard to the applicableand relevant facets of the situation. Therefore, my first decision was to gather lab results through the email, which informed me of the health risks the consumers, who were constantly on the rise, were highly affected by the toxins. I was also able to determine the risk level presented, and whether the products also met the FDA standards although this changed during the second simulation. Concerning the FDA charges, I was needed to be well aware of the exact amounts of the sold products in the United States that were toxic. I was also required to find out whether the same products sold met the foreign countries’ regulations as well as standards. Thus be able to determine if it was quite ethical to distribute and sell the goods with very minimal or no regulation without having taken away their rights to set sale standards to the citizens.
Through identification of the ethical issues, I was able to concentrate and focus on the effects of the verdict I had to come up with. To begin with, I had to consider all the investors and stakeholders, being the people who were directly involved and affected by the situation. In both situations the stakeholders were quiteanalogous with a trivialvariancecentered on the authenticity of the situation.
In addition, being quite aware of whom the stakeholders were I had to actively contemplateon the consequence it would have on them based on the decision I had to make. I had to discernwhether the choiceI made was a short -term or long-term solution and in what way it would affect the company’s reputation as well as its image, while at the same time selling of these products to other countries or to the less fortunate was highly unethical.In order to avoid ethical issues, I analyzed the situation carefully so that I could come up with a clear and sound decision. In my decision making I was able to identify the situation that required ethical consideration being the goods sold to people across the United States as well as other countries. This could harm their lives and young children could also become affected. The consumers were the ones at risk.
The ethical outlooks or lenses in creating the decision to the simulation mainly based on making the stakeholders happy. This depends upon realizing as well as accomplishment of goals. This all instigates with determining which decision to be chosen and examining the temporary as well as the longstanding impacts of the decisions in nourishing the stakeholders. However, this decision would only save the company and have fewer impacts but the consumers will still get affected. But for the company’s well-being I chose to save the company’s ethics.
Based on the decision I made, I analyzed that the impact of the decision is quite high on the shareholders and the same for the company. However, the impact is of medium level of the consumers of these products. The impact would also have a medium level to the quality control manager, operations director, and public relations director for the products. The stakeholders are the ones to be affected most, while at the same time the product sold can be standardized and avoid many issues, and thesestimulation concepts can also relate to the place of work. While coming up with decision concerning ethical perspective in a place of work, there are numerous options which can lead one towards making the best decision in order to make the stakeholders contented because ethically, if something is going wrong within or outside the business or a company, the management should be given an opportunity to take the best decision in avoiding any moral situations.
