ETHICAL DECISION MAKING:

EMPLOYER RESPONSIBILITY AND


EMPLOYEE RIGHTS

The Distinct Perspectives on the


Ethics of Workplace Relationships
1. Utilitarian approach : The employers decide to treat
employees well as a means to produce greater workplace
harmony and productivity
Pengusaha memutuskan untuk memperlakukan karyawan
dengan baik sebagai sarana untuk menghasilkan hubungan
yang lebih harmonis dan produktivitas kerja
2. Deontologist approach : the employers might emphasizes
the rights and duties of all employees and treating
employees well, simply because it is the right thing to do.
Pengusaha menekankan hak dan kewajiban seluruh
karyawan dan memperlakukan karyawan dengan baik,
hanya karena itu adalah hal yang benar untuk dilakukan.

Employment Relationship
Due process : the right to be protected against
the arbitrary use of authority. In legal context,
due process refers to the procedures that police
and courts must follow in exercising their
authority over citizens. Due process in the
workplace acknowledges an employers
authority over employees.
Hak untuk dilindungi terhadap penggunaan
sewenang-wenang otoritas. Dalam konteks
hukum, proses yang mengacu pada prosedur
aparat hukum dan pengadilan harus
mematuhinya dalam melaksanakan wewenang
mereka atas warga. Proses hukum di tempat
kerja mengakui otoritas majikan atas karyawan.

Employment at will holds that, absent a praticular


contractual or other legal obligation that specifies the
length or conditions of employment, all employees are
employed at will. This means that, unless an
agreement specifies otherwise, employers are free to fire
an employee at any time and for any reason. In the same
manner, an employee may opt to leave a job at any time
for any reason, without offering any notices at all.
Kecuali kesepakatan ditentukan lain, pengusaha bebas
untuk memecat seorang karyawan setiap saat dan untuk
alasan apapun. Dengan cara yang sama, seorang
karyawan dapat memilih untuk meninggalkan pekerjaan
setiap saat dengan alasan apapun dan tanpa
pemberitahuan .

Terminating due to downsizing : firms should


review both the fairness of their decision
making process and the consequence of that
process on those terminated and the resulting
composition of the workforce.
Health and safety :
Health and safety as acceptable risk
Health and safety as market controlled
Health and safety government regulated
