For this organisation, you may identify ethical issues or aspects from a range of areas covered in the readings and lecture notes. These include:-

Ethics at the Individual Level

The dynamic of Groups and Ethics in the organisation

The Organisational Ethics Construct (How does the organisation ensure ethical behaviours?)
