“I know Jen smokes right beside the propane tank but she always throws her butts far from the tank. I know that it will not cause any harm. Plus she got me this part-time job; if I say something she will lose her job”
Tom is really funny and lively. Without him work is so boring but you know last night he was out with his guys and had little too much to drink. He called in sick today …this is not the first time he has done that, he does it every so often and gets away with it, but you know he is a cool guy I don’t think everyone needs to know what he does in his personal life.
Have you ever met situations where you had to make decisions about ethical behavior at work? If you caught your colleague smoking in a non-smoking area at work would you report him or not? What if they were your best friend as well? If someone called in sick and yet they were just out partying until late last night and decided not to come in to work, if they shared this with you how will you handle that situation? What would you say or what would you do? Many of us fail to make ethical decisions at work due to our social conflict of interest.
