Ans2. Effective ethics programs can improve the lives of the company's stakeholders.
The below there
will discuss how tech giant google can use its power to improve their privacy for maintains its
profitability in the context of ethics program:
As a large company, Google has many risks and ethical issues.
Google helped advance ethical conduct in the web and technology industry. Google is a recipient of
Ethisphere’s World’s Most Ethical Companies for its contributions to the community and the
environment. To maintaining their privacy google already change their privacy policy with the code of
conduct in 2012 The company notified users of the change through email.
1. According to the email, Google was taking all of the information it had on its users and combining it
and that instead of having separate privacy policies for each of its offerings (Gmail, Google+, Chrome,
etc.) also Google created one privacy policy that applies to all of its service offerings equally.
2. Any Users were initially not happy about the new privacy policy also they feared that some of the
things they had been discussing privately, such as through their Gmail accountsor Android phones, and
show up in the form of ads on the search engine.
[Link] claimed this simplified the privacy policy process as now users only have to read one privacy policy
rather than privacy policies for each of its services.
[Link] analysts also state that the policy is not new on google.
[Link] was already able to do these things. Users could be reassured that Google’s new policy will not
enable it to gain any more information than it already collects.
In response to government privacy issues: They always concern about consumers over what information
Internet companies such as Google can collect and how they can use it.
2 By doing this, many firms have instituted “do not track” features that users can click on if they wish to
avoid being tracked.
[Link] Google has installed this feature in its Google Chrome. As like self-regulation is an attempt to
ward off federal legislation that could seriously limit Google’s tracking activities.
So any problem is not solved fast for betterment it will take time to research it will be improved so if
Goggle follows the effective programs lie they care about their code of conduct properly and also if they
assist their employee properly. and also they must be established a grievance procedure then they must
be improved and maintain their profitability.
Ans3(a): Many companies have been accused of violating ethical issues. in the below explain the
unethical practices.
Bribery: Bribery is an act implying money or gift-giving that alerts the behavior of the receipts. Most of
the time it creates law salaries, personal greed, and so many [Link] this covid 19, there is creat so
much bribery like a false report. Most people create false reports with the help of bribery.
Antitrust activity: Antitrust laws are regulations that encourage competition by limiting the market
power of any particular firm. In this time by doing this many companies are increasing their product
price three times. Its creat hassle for the customer.
Internet security and privacy: In the time of period it's one of the most important issues because a large
number of people use the internet but they did not know about hacking. Nowadays hacking is rapidly
increase, Cybercrime should take more steps to stop this.
Human rights: People are not getting their rights because if they no agree to bribery many organization
does not allow for the job although the participants are most deserving one there will see one such get
the job who are not capable for this job but he chooses bribery. That is why he/she gets the job.
Health care: Most of the hospitals are create harassment patients for unnecessary tests. In this covid19
we can see many hospitals do not properly care about patients at the same time many doctors take risks
to save patient.
Compensation: In the BCS for doctors we can see all are passed for doctors without any exam because
that time their many doctors needed its like ethical or unethical compensation both said as.
[Link] covid 19 many companies choose unethical programs just because of some profit. In Bangladesh
perspective many hospitals, pharmacies, airlines choose an unethical program. Because they know in
these it is the most common needed for people for this service. That is why they choose these like they
create a false report for covid patient most of the pharmacist increase the gloves, sanitizer and mask
price unethically. That is why everyone faces a [Link]'s totally unethical. At the same time if we
notice the other countries' ethical systems we can see how ethical they are.
C. Bribery is one of the most pervasive forms of corruption in global business. In the United States, the
United Kingdom, and many other countries, bribery in business is illegal, particularly when it involves the
bribing of foreign officials. Many Multinational organizations face the added challenge of having to
monitor their subsidiaries in various countries, some that expect bribes in order to perform business
functions. Like IBM, for instance, paid fines of $10 million to settle claims it paid officials in China and
Korea with gifts and other bribes to secure contracts.
So many global companies create racism they always prioritize those countries that are economically
more affordable. The priority most but they directly not deny another country which they did not like
just because of next time if they need help once they will not get it. So World trade organization must be
set a rule for it otherwise it will increase every time there will create many unethical programs.
