Ethics at the Individual Level
What is the primary ethical obligation of a bank employee who witnesses a senior manager approving loans to relatives without due process?
The employee should report the misconduct through the bank's whistle-blower mechanism while documenting the facts, prioritising loyalty to the institution over personal loyalty.
What must be true of a 'value' according to the chapter's definition?
It must be desirable for all, with universal command and acceptability.
Why is ignoring misconduct by a colleague or superior considered an ethical failure for a bank employee?
Ignoring misconduct makes the employee complicit in the wrongdoing, as individual ethical responsibility requires speaking up against violations of due process.
How does the chapter distinguish a terminal value from an instrumental value?
Terminal value is an ultimate end-state; instrumental value is a behaviour mode to achieve it.
