What Are The Five Ethical Dilemmas In Business Ethics

Ethics as an invisible rule exists in our society, and it help us to examine what the right or wrong is. Ethics is not a law, but it seem like an invisible law to control everyone whose behavior. Business ethics always applies into trading or some competitors behaviors. According to the case, I have been catch up five points of ethical dilemmas for business ethics：

Oracle Corporation hire GI to investigate ACT

Offer high price to the janitors for the trash of ACT 's office

Try to buy the supervisor over

Ellison described his acting is civic duty

A fault denied by Ellison Oracle and Microsoft are competitor, and I think as a competitor it 's unethical action which Oracle hire GI to investigate the relationship between Microsoft and ACT because

First, the point of offer high price to the janitors is unethical behavior, but GI staff might think this actions is not violate the law because she wants to get information from ACT office 's trash, and she doesn 't turn over the trash by her self. She doesn 't get any promise to do this, so she hopes janitors to do this which is legal for her because the key point is the trash, and the trash was abandoned by ACT which mean the trash doesn 't belong to anyone. According to this point, the staff of GI is legal, but she didn 't get any information that what she wants finally. Suppose she offered a high price to the janitors, and janitors also agreed to help her to turn over the trash at that moment, this behavior will violate the law because if this action has success, it will become to bribery. Then, I want to identify the unethical behavior of fault denied by Ellison. I think Ellison might think that he can do this way which deny the fault because he hires GI company to collect the information, but he could not teach GI what way you have to use. If GI can collect important information successfully, that will help his company to improve the stock or status in industry. Otherwise, GI has hired by Ellison, and they must made contract for this case. The purpose of GI which collects the information

(The Nash model) This model is almost same as Blanchard-Peale model. She described an example that federal guideline regulate to cook meat which must be over 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Different fast food restaurant has different cooking degree base on the minimum of 140 degrees. Higher degrees could kill an E. coli bacteria totally; however, one of these fast food restaurants that Jack in the box only follows the minimum requirement rule to cook meat by 140 degrees. We can not say it 's not legal because the minimum requirement is 140 degrees, but we should know E coli bacteria could affect child or customers to get sick if the bacteria are not eliminated. The result is serious, and why Jack in the box not rise the cook degrees when they cook meat to avoid this bacteria. When managers to make decision for their company, they should stand the other side of the fence. Come back to our topic, Ellison or GI doesn 't stand the other side to think about this problem when Ellison hired a private investigation firm to collect information, and GI staff try to offer a high price to the janitors. Ellison is a chairman of Oracle Corporation who is rich. He spend too much money to order to challenge his competitor in unethically,
