Employee Rights and Business Ethics

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the employment practices including employment-at-will and just cause concepts and examines the debate over whose interests should matter most: the employer or the employee. Arguments for both sides of the debate are illustrated through opinions of academics and business ethics experts alike. It also looks at how employment practices, or lack thereof, have opened the flood gates in terms of unlawful dismissal suits.

From the Paper:

"Joseph R. Des Jardins and John J. McCall's book "Contemporary Issues in Business Ethics" integrates the philosophy of management, economics, public policy, and law when focusing on ethical reasoning and critical analysis. In their book, Des Jardins and McCall analyze various approaches to business ethics from a socio-political perspective. The authors challenge readers to contemplate how society views business in terms of the struggle between individual and organizational rights. "
