Z, an impoverished university student, and his millionaire father enter into an agreement where Z agrees that he will keep the front and backyards of the family property mowed, and he will do a bit to keep the gardens looking tidy. In return his father agrees to pay him a weekly allowance of RM200. His father had previously used a garden contractor to do the job and paid him RM350. They live on one-hectare property, and the mowing alone takes half a day a week. After four weeks, Z’s father tells him that he cannot afford to pay RM200 a week. He says that Z should be doing the job for nothing, as it is the responsibility of the whole family to look after the property; besides, he says Z is getting free board and lodging. Advise Z

Describe the five steps in an ethical analysis. Below are the guidelines of answer. DO NOT use guidelines below as the answer of question. Please use your own answer with provide example with each step.

Five steps

1. Identify and describe clearly the facts. Find out who did what to whom, and where, when, and how. In many instances, you will be surprised at the errors in the initially reported facts, and often you will find that simply getting the facts straight helps define the solution. It also helps to get the opposing parties involved in an ethical dilemma to agree on the facts.

2. Define the conflict or dilemma and identify the higher-order values involved. Ethical, social, and political issues always reference higher values. The parties to a dispute all claim to be pursuing higher values (e.g., freedom, privacy, protection of property, and the free enterprise system). Typically, an ethical issue involves a dilemma: two diametrically opposed courses of action that support worthwhile values. For example, the chapter-ending case study illustrates two competing values: the need to improve health care record keeping and the need to protect individual privacy.

3. Identify the stakeholders. Every ethical, social, and political issue has stakeholders: players in the game who have an interest in the outcome, who have invested in the situation, and usually who have vocal opinions. Find out the identity of these groups and what they want. This will be useful later when designing a solution.

4. Identify the options that you can reasonably take. You may find that none of the options satisfy all the interests involved, but that some options do a better job than others. Sometimes arriving at a good or ethical solution may not always be a balancing of consequences to stakeholders.

5. Identify the potential consequences of your options. Some options may be ethically correct but disastrous from other points of view. Other options may work in one instance but not in other similar instances. Always ask yourself, “What if I choose this option consistently over time?”
