Potter Box And Rest Four Components Model Of An Ethical Dilemma

Although we did not regularly attend church, I was introduced to the Christian faith as a child and hold those values. I was raised by my grandparents as my father left my mother before I was born and life’s

The weakness associated with the ethical decision making model is that the model is designed only to be a guide. In the field of psychology, nothing is an exact science. What may be the right thing to do in one situation, may not work for all. For example, a forensic professional hired by the district attorney’s office is requesting to receive hospital records of a bank robber to determine his mental state at the time of the robbery. The district attorney tells her no in fear that it may support the bank robber’s incompetency plea. She seeks the advice of a colleague that has experienced a similar situation which tells her to go to the judge and request additional time. There is no guarantee that the judge on this case will grant permission to receive the records as the previous judge did. Although the same protocol was followed, the outcome may be

For my discussion, I choose the systematic 10-step model of ethical decision making from chapter two of Welfel’s book.  However, I’m an athlete/fighter pilot who thinks in 3 and 4 steps versus 10 so I broke the 10 step model into 4 basic steps because when things are moving quickly, I need simple steps to guide me.

There are many different methods used by employees to steal from a company. Often when you mention employee theft, the first thought is of a cashier pocketing some money from the cash register or a maintenance person stealing some items from around the office. While this happens, there are many other ways that employee steal from the company. The most common types of employee theft, as reported by the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB)5, are:

There are various forms of cash fraud. One of the common schemes is cash larceny. Cash larceny refers to employees intentionally taking away cash from their employer without the employer’s knowledge and consent (Wells, 2014). Employees who have direct access to cash are more likely to commit cash larceny (Wells, 2014). Cash larceny is more likely to occur if there are weak internal controls in an organization. Weak internal controls make it difficult to prevent and detect an occurrence of fraud. This paper seeks to evaluate a recent case of cash larceny by a former employee at Glen Aubrey Fire Company.

Employee theft is a big deal and can cost companies thousands of dollars. The most commonly known act of employee theft is the physical transaction of money. However, this can occur in many ways; most commonly is lying about how much money was earned. Employee theft is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly.

When workers take small objects from their workplace, they are taking items that are pennies on the dollar. However when all of the pennies are counted on a grand scale, they accumulate to massive amounts of dollars. At the end of the day, when all is said and done, the workers are taking profits from their employers. The profits taken have long lasting effects that the workers are not seeing. Companies and corporations will start cutting paychecks, increasing prices, and even firing their employees when their net revenue starts declining. This is a situation where everyone loses; the employees get their wages cut, the consumers become affected by inflation, and the owners have to take preventative measures just to keep their companies afloat. These occurring events could be prevented, there is not a gray area where workers stealing from their bosses is morally

On average, time theft costs business owners thousands of dollars every year. That is not just in stolen time. In some cases, if you dispute an employee's time spent on the job, the disgruntled employee will

If I were an employer I would make sure that part of their initial orientation would be a discussion about stealing company property. I would make it very clear that this type of crime will not be

Stealing from a organization you work for is one of the worst actions of professionalism. In my opinion there are many forms of negativity to determine the quality of an individual and their professionalism, but the act of theft has to be one of the worst. In my perspective this is morally and ethically wrong.This was the first time I encountered a negative example of professionalism was when I was employed as a grocery Bagger at a commissary located on a U.S. Department of Defense base while I was in high school.

What is ethical for social media star Logan Paul to post a video of a suicide victim on his YouTube channel? On the one hand it was ethical because since Logan Paul has a large fan base, he believed publishing the video would help raise suicide awareness. On the other hand, it is unethical because the video posted violates YouTube’s policy. My position for this ethical challenge is unethical I will justify my position using the four steps of the Potter Box. The four steps are supporting facts that correlate to the challenge, creating values towards the topic, choosing a moral theory which best justifies the argument and lastly, deciding who I am loyal to within the ethical challenge.

Have you ever wondered why Christian Values are so important? Christian Values can save lives all over the world; do you want to know how? The three points I will be talking about is; self, other, and last but not least God. I will also state the following three topics; culture, Government, and of course Individual.

There must be a written policy regarding stealing and what disciplinary action might occur. This must also define stealing (some employees might view tools, etc. as being borrowed).

Is stealing becoming more acceptable in the workplace? Generally, when people think of stealing or theft they are referring to the act of physically taking property from someone else. In reality there are many different ways that an employee can steal from an organization, and I have seen three different ways in my short career. The basic definition of theft is the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods or property of another, and this is one way in which people can take away from an organization. The most common way for people to steal from an organization is theft of time, and this includes; taking extra time on breaks and

After considering all the four sections of the Potter Box, I have come to the conclusion that the music video seemed to be unethical. I found it to be inappropriate as well as disrespectful regarding the culturally negative depictions through out the music video. However, this is just my personal opinion after using the ethical decision-making model, but since the concept of the video was to promote good decision making, the perceptions might vary depending the individual.
