MGT 602 Legal and Ethical Issues in Management
Summer Term 1 2015-2016
Case Analysis No. 2
Instructions:
The requirements and guidelines for preparing the written report on case
analysis are described below:
1. Provide the summary of the case?
2. Identify and state clearly the problem(s) or issue(s) in the case?
3. Discuss appropriate laws and ethical theories and/or concepts relevant to the
problem and/or issues identified. The purpose is to spot the issues; knowing what is
the issue is in some sense more important than knowing the answers. It is okay to
say that the answer is not clear; in such a case, present both sides of the argument,
then say which argument should prevail, and why?
4. State any and all assumptions, but do not spend valuable space on non-issues or
extreme tangents. If you need further factual information to assess fully the legal and
ethical issues, note what additional facts you need to know and how those facts
would affect the outcome. Be sure to explain the principles of law you are applying
and your ethical reasoning. Refer to cases (both legal and teaching cases) to the
extent it's helpful to do so.
5. Explain and elaborate your answers to all the questions related to the case by
providing convincing arguments based on relevant laws and ethical theories,
concepts and readings from the textbook or from class notes or other courses by
making a proper citation.
6. Provide recommendations/suggestions that integrate legal and ethical aspects as
discussed in class. Include ethical considerations and strategies for resolution.
7. Described what you have learned from doing this case.
8. Your answer is limited to 1500 words, double-spaced, in 12-point font.
