  • MSLB 505: Ethical & Legal Challenges

    3.00 Credits
    Duquesne University

    The American workplace has undergone enormours changes in the past 40 years. The Employment at Will Doctrine which for so long governed all aspects of the employer-employee relationship, began to yield to laws that were intended to provide employees with some measure of protection from arbitrary or discriminatory actions. In this course we will examine the many legal requirements in today's workplace, but we will consider as well the many questions that are not answered by law. Law of course establishes a moral minimum of behavior. The nature of this program and of this course suggests that we can do better. Toward that end we will examine the ethical dimensions of the employer-employee relationship and consider how we can create organizations that appeal to our highest aspirations.
