Instructions
Read your case study carefully.
1. Identify the main characters in this case and summarize what happened.
2. Identify the central ethical issues it involves (i.e., Job Security, Health and Safety, Whistleblowing, Marketing & Advertising, Corporate Social Responsibility, etc.). Be specific and provide relevant details of the issues involved.
3. Assess the morality of what the main characters did or should do from the point of view of utilitarianism, Kants ethics, rights-based theory, free-market theory or some other theory we have discussed during the course (choose ONE theory or offer a BRIEF comparison between two or more).
4. What other courses of action, if any, were open to the main characters? What would you have done in their place?
