Below is a short list provided by DuPont of common ethical issues in the workplace. Choose at least three issues and explain what would be a “wrong” expression of that scenario and solve it with a “right” way to solve that scenario.

For example: Mercedes claimed her hair appointment as a company expense. A “wrong” way to handle the situation would be to approve the expense and not confront the employee on the unrelated business expense. A “right” way to solve the issue would be to meet with Mercedes one-on-one to hear her reasoning in qualifying it as an expense. If the expense did not pertain to her work duties, then politely explaining how hair appointments are not considered business-related expenses and she will not be reimbursed for the expense.

Bribes and Kickbacks
Confidential Information
Conflicts of Interest

Harassment
Insider Trading
Misstatement/Falsifying Company Documents
Misuse of Company Assets

Explain Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. What does it tell us about employee motivation? Cite an example of what a company does to provide motivation for each of the levels within the hierarchy?

I believe having a diverse workforce is very valuable,as diversity is much needed in today's world.When in business you have people to be able to meet all needs which may require language, nationality, socioeconomic status, gender, religion, or sexual orientation.Is it a challenge for human resource managers yes.Having to learn and understand everyone's background and coming to an understanding with what works best for everyone to work together.I believe these challenges are overcome by open door policies and communication.If you are interviewing probably and knowing your teams weak and strong needs you are able to bring in the right fit to make everything balance in the work place.I also believe open door leaves room for employees and employers to discuss things properly without confrontation and understanding core values.
