Sexual harassment

Answer preview

This issue relates to Module 3: Job Discrimination under sexual harassment. Jane’s story is not unique because, according to Johnson et al. (2018), approximately 35% of working women have experienced sexual-related harassment at least once over their careers. This number jumps to 45% for women working in technical fields that men majorly dominate. Additionally, about 55% of women in the senior management levels also experience some form of sexual harassment because men majorly surround them. Johnson et al. (2018) adds that according to the complaints received by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 2018, about 16% of the total sexual harassment cases were from men. This means that even men also experience sexual harassment. Organizations need to develop strict policies and measures to prevent any form of sexual harassment in the workplace. The employees should also be made aware of what sexual harassment is and ways to avoid it. Decisive and swift actions should be taken on all sexual harassment reported cases after thorough investigations have been done.

Additionally, the basis of equality includes the state of being treated equally in several aspects, including status, opportunities, and rights while in society. Therefore, a good foundation of justice provides that members of society should be given fair treatment and similar opportunities according to their rights regardless of their diversity (Yeshiva University, 2020). Furthermore, impartiality involves treating all society members fairly irrespective of their class or status, which is paramount in relation to morality.

This aspect is lacking in the company’s role in social responsibility despite having a compelling and ethical Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy (Samsung, n.d). Periodical audit will aid in identifying loopholes in the stakeholder’s practice, including unethical issues and law violations that may affect the company. Furthermore, this will help establish a strong foundation based on ethical practices by the stakeholders to avoid action being taken against them for misconduct. In addition, the company should have reviewed the stakeholders’ and contracted suppliers’ workforce policies to ensure they align with the company’s employee relations laws. For instance, the age requirement for employment and reviewing employees’ contracts to verify the eligibility of the information provided.

One of the secondary ovulation symptoms is mittelschmerz which refers to ovulation pain in the lower abdomen. It occurs fourteen days prior to menstruation. Another symptom is ovulation spotting, whereby a woman experiences light bleeding during this cycle, although it is not common in all females. The third symptom is the swollen vulva, which occurs in the area where ovulation occurs. Fourthly, increased libido, which is stimulated by high estrogen levels. However, libido is low due to reduced estrogen when ovulation is not taking place (Gnoth et al., 2016). The fifth ovulation symptom is breast tenderness caused by high progesterone hormones. The tender breasts result in pain in the nipples, and fluid delays as the breasts prepare for lactation and conception. The sixth symptom is bloating, which occurs due to increased fluids in the lower abdomen stimulated by progesterone. Lastly, ferning is a symptom of the mucus forming fern in its secretions. It is a result of sodium chloride crystallization on the mucus.

Ethical egoism explains that one’s interests must be in accord with morality. It also explains that one acts morally upright if one promotes their best interests. Based on our case study, it is clear that Mayor Gibson is acting according to ethical egoism. The Mayor’s interest is to treat all community members equally without any favors or discrimination (Smith, Adam, 1759). The dilemma comes because the Mayor wants to act morally by adhering to his moral codes. Egoist suggests that all behaviors are motivated by one’s self-interests. Therefore, it is clear that the Mayor’s self-interest is to keep his office clean, and that’s why he is in a dilemma on whether to accept the VIP ticket or decline it.

Ethical Issues Regarding Abortion

/in /by

Prompt and Instructions:

Requirements: 300 words

Answer preview

The information presented in the text has challenged me, posing to ask why a law would force a pregnant mother to keep a pregnancy resulting from rape and end up mistreating the baby throughout its development when they remember the ordeal? I believe pregnancy should be wanted, and every baby deserves to be valued, loved, and nurtured before and after birth. As the Bible states in John 1:14, the Church and the believers should embrace grace and truth to see the glory of God, meaning that they must live in an atmosphere of true love and grace-filled. While not condoning abortion procured with unsound reasons, I believe that the ethics of the Sabbath encourages Christians to love and support everyone, including pregnant women who decide to abort, on rational grounds. Hence, an ideal approach that would ensure that believers keep the ethics of the Sabbath would focus on encouraging them to visit such women and give them spiritual and emotional support. Such measures would help these women to regain strength and self-value.

Answer preview

As a high school social studies teacher, one of my students approached me and pointed out that one of the other students in the class has been sending him pornographic photographs and threatening emails when undertaking a class group project. As an educator, the NEA code of ethics requires me to strive to assist all students in realizing their potential as effective and valuable members of society (NEA, 2020). To meet this obligation, I have to make all reasonable efforts to protect my students from harmful conditions that might impede their learning or those threatening their health and safety (NEA, 2020). Sending threatening emails and sharing unsolicited pornographic photos is tantamount to cyberbullying.
