Business Ethics
This essay is going to centralize on the unethical treatment which employees are subjected to by their employers. The essay shall detail the story of a young security guard named Tuff whose refutes to obey company policy which is in violation with the state of Minneapolis, and the police laws under which his working ethics of conducts are monitored. This will combine also with personal reflection on the happening which led to the unjust dismissal of Tuff as an employee of Blue Mountain Company.
Moral Ethics on the Security Guard Action
Tuff an employee of the blue mountain security company took the right action of being the whistler blow of this organization unethical policy. The policy which Tuff was on about was in violation of the employee’s rights which are protected under National Labor Relation Act of 1935.

Personally I would also have taken the same action executed by Tuff, this action are based on the good of the majority of the people. The director of security Manuel Hernandez main concern was pleasing the clientele other than minding their safety and other rod user’s lives. Tuff decision is morally and ethically right, although the rest of the workers showed discontent on the policy they were mostly concerned with their paychecks more than their revocation of the licenses which would have resulted to the same thing (Pinedo & Beauchamp, 1998).
Case of Unjust Dismissal
Although the organization particularly advocates that employees do not disclose organizations policies to the press. Tuff had tried at all level to level out his grievances to the director of security Manuel Hernandez. However, all Tuff concerned were counter attacked and regarded as complains. The boar...
