ANSWER:--
a) Using practical examples from the field of computer compare (into some detail) the terms ‘Ethical’ and ‘Legal’ and relate them to the issue of ethical behavior in organizations
Using practical examples from
the field of computer compare the terms ‘Ethical’ and ‘Legal’:-
There are four big areas of computer ethics,
They are:
1. computer crime.
2. responsibility for computer failure.
3. protection of computer property, records, and software.
4. privacy of the company, workers, and customers.
There are following Legal aspects in field of computer:
1. contracting
2. payment systems
3. digital signatures
4. privacy concerns
5. intellectual property
6. business torts
7. criminal liability including hacking, computer trespass and also fraud.
Ethical behavior in organization is following:
However, both the terms – legal and ethical – are spatio-temporal and change with time and space. For example, there was a time when slavery was legally justified.
b) Doctors may experience ethical uncertainty when faced with a situation in which they are unsure of what values to apply or even where the ethical problem is. Discuss any five steps the doctor needs to go through in order to take the right ethical decisions.
The working principles that can be very helpful.
when going through the process of making appropriate ethical decisions.
1. Eliminate misunderstandings.
Many disputes with patients and families—perhaps even the majority—do not have any ethical content but are simply misunderstandings about what the other side is saying. Thus, medical ethicists often say, "Good facts make good ethics."
2. Listen, even when you strongly disagree.
For example, if patients tell you, "I don't believe in blood transfusions," go ahead and hear them out. Not only will listening help create a bond with patients, but it will also help you understand their objections, which will be essential in developing a care plan that works.
3. Be aware of your own biases.
Consider your own assumptions and share them with others, so that you can make sure they're not the source of the problem. If you can't get past your own prejudices, you might need to refer patients to someone who is more likely to share the patient's values.
4. Be somewhat flexible.
You may want to allow patients to have their own way. In any case, you may not be able to change their minds. For example, rather than voicing objections when patients talk about their use of alternative medicine, discuss with them the pills they are taking and determine whether any of them could be harmful.
5. Be transparent.
Disclose such issues as relationships with medical equipment companies or surgery centers. It's best to be open about it, but don't expect much response from most patients. Some patients may not like this activity, but most probably won't care.
6. Provide a recommendation.
When patients come to you for help, they expect a clinical recommendation from you. Give them your opinion. If you give them choices, explain the advantages and disadvantages of each choice, and allow them to challenge or disagree with you.
7. Don't use value-laden language.
When you tell patients that one approach is "reasonable" whereas the other is "invasive" or "painful," you are making up their minds for them, and they may feel manipulated. It is better to describe each approach with straight facts rather than value-laden words.
c) Although Ethics mean different thing to different people, its meaning always has some ethical implications. Briefly explain at least three implications of the meaning of Ethics.
The implications of the meaning of Ethics are:
1. Ethical Implications of Leadership
2. Ethical Implications of Law
3. Ethical Implications of Goodness
4. Ethical Implications of Honest
Ethical Implications of Leadership:-
Ethical Implications of Law:-
Ethical Implications of Goodness:-
Ethical Implications of Honesty:-
