Case study
Introduction
You are a member of a HACCP team working in a factory producing a variety of crisps for the retail market. You have decided to start with the salt and vinegar flavored crisps. The team has begun by considering physical hazards. All the potatoes used come from approved suppliers. The potatoes are supplied in large wooden crates and have undergone an initial washing process to remove gross debris at the supplier.
The process
When required for use the potatoes are removed from their crates and washed in potable water to remove soil and foreign bodies. After washing, the potatoes go over an inspection belt, where operatives remove damaged or green potatoes and any remaining foreign bodies. The potatoes are then peeled by machine before being automatically sliced. After slicing, the potatoes are rinsed with potable water to remove excess starch. The slices are then partially air dried using hot air blowers to remove most of the surface moisture.
The slices then pass over a spacing belt where operatives separate clumps of slices or remove damaged slices. The slices then enter the fryer and are fried at a temperature of 180 degrees for about 2 mins. On exiting the fryer the crisps pass over a mesh belt to allow the excess oil to drain away before entering a rotary tumbler where the flavor is applied. The crisps are then transferred on a long mesh belt to the packing area which allows the crisps to cool whilst being transferred. The crisps are then automatically weighted, bagged and sealed in 30 g bags. The film for the bags is supplied on rolls and dare coded just before filling.

- Scenario 4 Sharon Gillespie, a new buyer at Visionex, Inc., was reviewing quotations for a tooling contract submitted by four suppliers. She was evaluating the quotes based on price, target quality levels, and delivery lead time promises. As she was working, her manager, Dave Cox, entered her office. He asked how everything was progressing and if she needed any help. She mentioned she was reviewing quotations from suppliers for a tooling contract. Dave asked who the interested suppliers were and if she had made a decision. Sharon indicated that one supplier, Apex, appeared to fit exactly the requirements Visionex had specified in the proposal. Dave told her to keep up the good work. Later that day Dave again visited Sharons office. He stated that he had done some research on the suppliers and felt that another supplier, Micron, appeared to have the best track record with Visionex. He pointed out that Sharons first choice was a new supplier to Visionex and there was some risk involved with that choice. Dave indicated that it would please him greatly if she selected Micron for the contract. The next day Sharon was having lunch with another buyer, Mark Smith. She mentioned the conversation with Dave and said she honestly felt that Apex was the best choice. When Mark asked Sharon who Dave preferred, she answered, Micron. At that point Mark rolled his eyes and shook his head. Sharon asked what the body language was all about. Mark replied, Look, I know youre new but you should know this. I heard last week that Daves brother-in-law is a new part owner of Micron. I was wondering how soon it would be before he started steering business to that company. He is not the straightest character. Sharon was shocked. After a few moments, she announced that her original choice was still the best selection. At that point Mark reminded Sharon that she was replacing a terminated buyer who did not go along with one of Daves previous preferred suppliers. Ethical decisions that affect a buyers ethical perspective usually involve the organizational environment, cultural environment, personal environment, and industry environment. Analyze this scenario using these four variables.Scenario 4 Sharon Gillespie, a new buyer at Visionex, Inc., was reviewing quotations for a tooling contract submitted by four suppliers.

Bricks and Mortar are considering computerising and "internetting" the main part of their business: that carried out in the branch offices; the selling and marketing of houses. They called this the "Business Improvement Project" (BIP). It is hoped that this will enable Bricks and Mortar to become the premier estate agent in the south of England although with the drop in demand to buy houses as the rental market expands coupled with new internet based estate agents emerging this could be a tough target to meet. However, the BIP should allow costs to fall as there will be a need for fewer administrative staff especially if they switch away from advertising in newspapers and move onto the web. Kate Hudson also hopes that this will enable houses to be sold more quickly. Current use of IT is…

He has been working with the company for about a year. The job required Mamat to travel several days a month. Since he is not married Mamat does not mind the travel. He enjoys the variety and the change of working environment. Furthermore, the company reimburses him for his travel expenses. On his recent out-of-town trip, he was accompanied by Hassan, his supervisor, and friend. While discussing the reimbursement for the trip, Hassan told him to increase the number of his cab fares since the driver only stamped the receipt letting them fill out the amount themselves.

As Mamat was filling out his claim form, he knew if he did pad the cab fares, his total would conflict with Hassan’s. 1) What courses of action are open to Mamat?
