AIDS in the Workplace: Policy and Ethics
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper addressing organizational AIDS policy. AIDS continues to increase in the numbers of people infected with the HIV virus, and its action is so closely aligned with that of cancer that the two often are combined in research efforts. It still is warily viewed by many, however. Organizational policy is more closely guided by law, for AIDS comes under the protection of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Even so, formulation and implementation of policy still gives rise to questions of ethics. The paper includes a view of liberal philosophy as promoted by Rawls and Mill, concluding that policy should be weighted to favor the afflicted individual but also considering the needs of the organization within the law. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

[ send me this paper ]

Alternative Solution for a Potentially Compromising Business Situation
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page solution to a situation facing a new-hire at a company which manufactures therapeutic medical devices. The new-hire has been instructed to misrepresent their volume needs to an outside provider with the intent of canceling the order after the smaller volume which is really needed had been obtained. Although the supervisor sees this as the only means of obtaining the small quantity of specialized tool upon which company survival rides (a volume which the outside firm could not feasibly produce with any profitability for themselves), the new-hire recognizes that misrepresenting his company’s intentions to another company would not only be a sure way of gaining an even worse industry reputation than what his new company already had but quite possibly immerse the company in a costly and counterproductive legal proceedings. The new-hire figures out an alternative approach which preserves both his personal ethics and his company’s reputation. No sources are listed.

American Values: Ideal Cultural Values and Reality
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing ideal cultural values of Americans in comparison with the standards of real American society. American’s cultural norms and values which are touted as ideal and as true American values often lead to ambiguity in the youth of the country when they view which values seem to be more of a reality in the daily lives of Americans. Some of the traditional American values of freedom of life, religion and labor in addition to equal rights and responsibility of others often times seem ambiguous when in reality Americans seem to place more importance on individualism, time, efficiency, materialism and action among others. Traditionally, morals and values were reinforced through the family, the church and the educational system. Now in a time when over fifty percent of children come from households which have experienced divorce, the teachings of the church are often in conflict with parts of the Constitution and the educational system has turned away from moral “character education”, the youth of today and in fact many of the adults as well have a difficult time defining the real values in the American society of today.
