...2015 Subject: Sexual Harassment in the Workplace I am writing this letter regarding a reoccurring incident that has been happening throughout the workplace, making it an uncomfortable and unsettling atmosphere. I have been approached by a co-worker in regards to John Doe, who has reportedly been harassing co-workers and customers. On this note, I came in to supervise the work place and in doing so was harassed as well. I am writing to you with hope that this matter will be kept confidential and that reasonable actions may be made. Reviewing John Doe’s actions by a countless number or employees, I find him to be going against our code of conduct. Evidence of his convictions were documented word for word with employee signatures of those present and signed on that day. I must rule out bias because Mr. Doe harassed me myself. As of now, Doe is being accused of verbal sexual harassment of workers and customers. As it says in the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission website, “It is unlawful to harass a person (an applicant or employee) because of that person’s sex. Harassment can include “sexual harassment” or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature” (par. 1). This issue we are dealing with is no joke and what is being said by the EEOC is what Doe is being accused of. Because of this credible source, we must understand how big this situation is and potentially could be. In order to protect the...

This was not an easy decision for the speaker to make, however he did what was right for other fellow drivers.Although it may appear cruel to some readers, the speaker's choice to push the dead pregnant doe over the cliff was the best decision because it prevented human deaths and it saved the unborn fawn from unnecessary suffering....

...been confronted with ethical dilemmas where either social or business ethics have prevailed. However, not every situation has to result in this “either or” manner. Thus, an ethical decision can result in a good business decision. This paper will discuss the handling of ethical decisions by businesses that can result in a good ethical and business choice, the modes of accountability for them, as well as discuss the teleological and deontological theories as they pertain to business decisions. Ethical Choices can Equal Good Business Businesses can make ethical decisions that are at the same time good for business. This can bring about profit for a company as well as establish or reinforce an image of integrity to the public. Here is an example of a decision a company took that was seen as an ethical choice, but not good for business. In August of 1992, just prior to Hurricane Andrew striking the homes of Miami residents, Home Depot resolved to sell their 4-foot-by-8-foot sheets of outdoor plywood at cost (forgoing their profit). While others took advantage of this situation (overcharging for necessities), Home Depot not only forfeited their profits, but also negotiated with their largest supplier to decrease their fees as well. Home Depot felt they did not want to gain from this human misfortune (Boatright, 2009). To many, this seemed an ethical decision, but to others, it seemed like a bad business move. There are alternatives to...

...Jeffery Newton Physical Facilities Evaluation Society has witnessed a growing epidemic affecting the sanctity of colleges and universities nationwide. Campus violence has placed stress and strains on the physical security efforts established by the educational institutions. The John Doe University security division has been charged with providing and sustaining a safe environment for staff and students attending the university. Additionally, the security divisions have the daunting task of securing sensitive information supported by cyber and physical platforms. To help better the lives of the student and faculty population of our university the management of the university has researched budget improvements that would help in reaching this goal. It has been determined in an attempt to improve the lives of the campus population a strong security budget is essential in improving the quality of life on campus. It is essential for colleges and universities to have physical security and emergency plans established. Revamping the current budget will work toward revitalizing associated security pitfalls faced by the university. John Doe University is housed on 10 acres of land. The university is engulfed by a heavily wooded perimeter accented with 10-foot high fences. Four main access points allow citizens to access the campus grounds. The layout of the university consist of (three-male, three-female, & one co-ed) dormitories, (8) instructional halls...

..." TER 1 Wat Is Morality. I \\·e are discussing nd-sm~ll matter, but how we ought to live. SOCRATES, AS REPORTED BY PLATO IN THE REPUBliC (CA. 390 B.C.) 1.1. The Problem of Definition Moral philosophy is the attempt to achieve a systematic under standing of the nature of morality and what it requires of us in Socrates's words, of "how we ought to live,r and why. :It would be helpful, therefore, if we could begin with a simple, uncon !roversial defiuition of what lIJ,Qrality is. But that tums out to be impossible. There are many rival theories, each expounding a different conception of what it means to live morally, and any definition that goes beyoud Socrates's simple formulation is bound to offend one or another of them. This should make us cautious, but it need not paralyze us. In this chapter I will describe what I call the "minimum con ception" of morality. As the name suggests, the minimum con ception is a core that every moral theory should accept, at least as a starting point. We will begin by examining some recent moral controversies. The features of the minimum conception will emerge from our consideration of these examples. 1.2.

...Watson’s Theory of Human Caring Nursing has a vast history, and throughout time nursing has adapted and grown to meet the needs of its people. There are some nurses whom are well known and even in history books. These nurses noticed something missing and attempted to fill that gap. Nursing theories came about to help close the gap. Because no two people are exactly alike the theories offer ways a nurse can identify and attempt to meet the needs of his or her patients. Jean Watson is one of those nurses who formed a theory to help fill in a missing piece and close the gap to help nurses assist patients with adapting to, and accepting changes in their health statuses. Jean Watson is not only a nurse, but a nursing instructor, and a published writer as well. She educated future nursing students at the University of Colorado. That is where she unintentionally formed her theory, the Theory of Human Caring, in order to be able to help her nursing students learn. She did not intend to become a theorist, but she has educated many nurses personally and now through her writings and her theory that the nurse is the main component of the patient’s environment (Alligood, 2010). The theory shows that the nurse should know his or her own perspectives and be open to the patient’s perspectives, thus building the caring nurse-patient relationship. The nurse can either help or interfere with the patient’s healing process. Watson will now help nurses much further than she ever imagined...

...For this I have 10 ethical solution regarding to this issues, based on my research I think this is the best steps that can help us to prevent from malicious cyber attacks that often attempt to breach into critical private information or gain control of the internal systems. These are: 1. As your server is the main point for data entering and leaving the network, you need to be extra cautious about it. You might need to keep it updated and always patched. Use a reputed firewall that keeps hackers away from your network. 2. Use a software that creates log of all the activities on the network. Normally, your firewall provides you with the list of programs trying to access external entities via the server. You can check these logs regularly...

...Plyler v. Doe The Supreme Court case of Plyler v. Doe in 1982 was the argument between a Texan Superintendent of the Tyler Independent School District and the Supreme Court dealing with one of the illegal immigration issues in Texas with considering its bordering location to Mexico. The issue was whether or not the Fourteenth Amendment protected illegal aliens and their children to have school funding provided for them, or if they were not considered to be the implied people whose rights were protected under this clause. Plyler's case was about how the state should not fund schooling for illegal immigrant children. Especially since they most likely do not contribute their money for state taxes like other legal Americans which, in return, help fund the school system. Therefore, the school district was trying to charge the undocumented immigrants an annual $1,000 fee for tuition in order to compensate for the lost state funding. One of the arguments supporting this idea was how easily people can cross the Mexican border, and how they are drawn towards the idea of free education. I personally believe that they made this idea portray that these illegal immigrants were purely taking advantage of the free education because...

...1- What was the reason for the loss of the contract? Reason for the loss of contract from the foregoing, it is obvious that the Department of Energy (DoE) failed to award the contract to Kombs Engineering for the simple fact they lacked faith in Komb’s project management system. This response is based on the sense that DoE gave questions to Kombs regarding their project management systems. However, the results underlined the failure of the company to implement an effective project management system In this case, Kombs had interacted with the DoE for a period of five years and it never took time to develop a proper system of managing projects during the time it was contracted. In fact, Kombs hired a contractor who effectively trained the entire company on the subject of project management for a period of one month only. Thus, Kombs never realized that the dynamics involved in project management had changed since it was contracted first by DoE in 1988. In order to sense and react quickly and to insure rapid decision-making in a project, lines of communication should be the shortest possible between all levels of the organization. In this case, once all line managers, like in the case of Kombs project management system, managing a project decision makes decision making a long process and effectively compromises the efficiency of the project. People with the most knowledge must be available at the source of the problem, and they must have decision-making authority and...

...Doe 1 John Doe Prof. Cronin ENGL101 (30) 17 November 2009 The Crucible One of the pieces of literature that I have truly enjoyed was the social commentary by Arthur Miller, The Crucible. Miller wrote the play in the early 50’s as a way to prove that the Second Red Scare, started by Senator Joseph McCarthy, was as barbaric and inhumane as the Salem Witch Trials, dating two and a half centuries back. During the 1950’s many people were wrongly accused of being traitors, and at the same time Communist, and thus were being blacklisted, jailed and deported. The term McCarthyism arose from that time period and is used describe the entire anti-communism philosophy in the United States. Miller cleverly compares the McCarthyism movement to the anti-witchcraft belief in the 1690’s, citing inhumane methods used to oust the ongoing hysteria. The four main characters in the play, John Proctor, Abigail Adams, Reverend Hale and Reverend Parris, are caught in the middle of the witchcraft panic in the pious Salem, Massachusetts in late 1690’s. John Proctor, being a regular farmer lives a simple life, with his quiet wife Elizabeth. However, he has an affair with the young and vindictive Abigail. Reverend Parris is Abigail's uncle, somewhat odd and many townspeople dislike him. Reverend Hale is a younger minister and witchcraft “expert” with good intentions and pure soul. He was the first one to understand how dangerous the hysteria has become. After Parris discovers his daughter...
