HR Memo AND Report

This task includes a memo AND a report. The memo should be 1-2 pages please. Please have two seperate documents (memo, and report) if possible. Any other questions

just let me know.

Introduction:

In light of recent corporate scandals, the question has been raised whether an effective, enforced ethics program could have impacted the outcome of such massive

instances of unethical corporate behavior. Because of the increased scrutiny of the actions of corporations and those who act on behalf of organizations, there has

been additional attention placed on the ethical actions within organizations. Many organizations have responded to this increased scrutiny by establishing formal

ethics programs to foster ethical decision making for business directors, officers, and employees. Effective ethics programs provide the opportunity for management to

establish a culture that establishes ethical behavior, both inside and outside of the organization, as the business strives to eliminate unethical conduct.

Scenario:

Two weeks after you are hired as the elementary division manager by a toy company, you receive a memo from the manager of the quality assurance department. During

routine testing, the quality assurance department identified a problem with one of the toys included in the elementary toy collection. The primary market for the

elementary toy collection is elementary schools. A metal whistle that is included in the toy collection did not pass testing due to small traces of lead. The amount of

lead included in the whistles was slightly above the U.S. legally acceptable limits for children ages 7 and younger. A large shipment of the elementary toy collection

is scheduled to be shipped to schools in South America at the end of the week, just in time for the beginning of the school year. The approximate cost to reproduce the

product and repackage the toy collections is $100,000.

Task:

A. Prepare a memo for the CEO and the executive team in which you do the following:

1. Present three possible decision alternatives to address the problem regarding the whistles.

a. Explain the process or method that you used for selecting each of the alternatives.

b. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative.

c. Discuss the financial, legal, and ethical considerations of each alternative.

2. Recommend one of the three possible decision alternatives.

a. Justify your recommendation.

b. Analyze how your recommendation could affect customer relationships.

c. Discuss the role of social responsibility in your decision-making process.

B. Prepare a report on the importance of ethical decision making to be presented to the CEO and board of directors at the board meeting in which you do the following:

1. Discuss two strategies that the company could adopt to ensure that ethical decision making takes place at all levels of the organization.

2. Explain how the company could benefit from a code of ethics.

3. Analyze a code of ethics for another company of your choice to determine the components that are important to include in the development of a code of ethics.
