Ethical Responsibilities of Organizations
– Find a recent newspaper article (within the last 5 years) about an organisation that has been reported for unethical business practice/s. The incident should preferably be within past five years. Please note that a scholarly journal article or web based blog or online news of television or radio channel will not be acceptable for the case study. However, these may be used in support of the newspaper article case study. The organisation may be: – A foreign multinational company (MNC) operating in Australia. – An MNC operating overseas. – An Australian company engaged in business globally. – An Australian company operating within Australia. – You are required to attach the newspaper article to your case study. You may place it at the end of the presentation after the reference list as an appendix. – Discuss the ethical responsibilities of the organisation doing business. To discuss adequately you are required to include what their responsibilities are and why you believe they are responsible. – Use the 10 Principles of the United Nations Global Compact as a framework to analyse the case https://www. unglobalcompact.org/what-is-gc/mission/principles . – Identify which UN Global Compact Principle/s have been breached. If you have identified more than one Principle mention those but chose only one to discuss in details how this organisation has breached the Principle. – Apply business ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) theories from your textbook, lecture material, learning materials from this unit to analyse this case. – Provide two recommendations to such an organisation to enable them to increase their globally responsive business practice/s in the future. The recommendations should address the what, why and how questions. Appropriate examples will add value to the recommendation. – Use minimum 10 scholarly references to support your analysis and discussion. Cite those references in the text as well as in the reference
