Refusing to take the Bangladesh offer cost our company money as the profit margins were small. However, given a chance again, I would still take the opportunity but report the company to the local authorities for them to adhere to ethical principles. I agree with the way George handled his dilemma by accepting to retain the company in Hondo and run it at night to avoid EPA testing (Lefkowitz, 2021). That is because moving the firm to Mexico would have cost a lot of people income, including his family. Also, moving the plant would cause more pollution to the people of Mexico and Hondo. Therefore, it was better to retain the plant in Hondo and reduce air pollution in Mexico until they get money to buy new scrubbers.
