MBUS 605 - Ethics & the Structure of Work

Institution:

Gonzaga University

Subject:

MASTERS BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIO

Description:

Though employees have made great strides over the years in gaining some control over the conditions under which they work, it remains the case that employers retain most of the power and control in setting the formal and informal conditions of work which employees must accept (e.g. policies that base continued employment on meeting certain health requirements, ultimatums that employees cease certain extracurricular activities, requirements for ongoing drug-testing, the creation of expectations that unpaid overtime is required, etc.) In this course, we will examine some ethical perspectives that are instructive in evaluation the acceptability of such practices and apply those perspectives to a few issues and cases.
