Ethical Dilemma Essay (1500 words)

Part A: Ethical Dilemma Essay (1,500 words)

Students are to identify and discuss an business-related ethical dilemma. Ideally, this choice should be relevant to your intended area of future employment. You must demonstrate both an awareness of the key issues surrounding why it is an ethical dilemma, and then propose solutions to that dilemma. A suggested format for the essay is:

- Ethical Dilemma Description (270-330 words)
- Justify why it is an ethical dilemma in a business situation (540-660 words)
- Ethical solutions proposed by the student to this dilemma (540-660 words)

*please input how you use business ethics theories to solved the dilemma mentioned*

Below are the theories.

-Consequentialist theories

-Utllitarian approach

-non-consequentialist theories

Part of the learning experience of this essay is for you as the student picking and developing the dilemma yourself from either a relevant recent news event, personal professional practice experience (particularly for students who have been on placement) or similar.

Students are strongly advised to read the marking criteria sheets (at the end of this document) very carefully to gain an understanding of exactly what the examiner will be looking for, and marking against.

You should not use an ethical dilemma that we have discussed in detail during a class or has been analysed in a textbook or website; this is your ethical dilemma, which you have developed, which ideally relates to your career aspirations.
