Deontology, Consequentialism, and Virtue are the three normative ethics used to analyze ethical issues surrounding the regards of employment. Most companies like McDonald's Corporation overlook sinful behaviors such as lying, cheating, and stealing if said person successfully reformed themselves behind bars. This is considered equal opportunity employment. Consequentialism implements the idea of weighing in past consequences of the wrongdoing of this person. Lastly, Virtue where employers analyze the well-being of the potential employee.

The amount of data accessible by the public is scary and it does not only have convict data, everyone's data is public. Arrest records of any kind, some employers would turn a person down. Deontology works best for non-equal opportunity employers as the Christian value weighs out the consequences of a former inmate, consequentialism and virtue all play a role in deciding the status of the potential employee.

Hello Class and Professor,

The three normative theories of business ethics are stockholder, stakeholder, and social contract theories. “It may be accurate to characterize the stockholder theory as proposing an “ethical division of labor.” According to the stockholder theory, the nature of the business environment itself imposes a basic duty of honest dealing on business people” (Hasnas, 2015). In the stakeholder theory, it means that they focus on connections between business and their customers, suppliers, employees, and more. In the social contract theory, is a contract that has an agreement on rules for behavior. These can all connect in different ways to the example that was provided with the arrest records.

Hello Class,

I agree, across the country there is a shortage of record staffing in many departments, or some departments just refuse to combine with future terms and jump on the technology development of todays world. So are there errors in the system, yes but most departs are using software’s such as RMS to help house their paper and prior systems and dump all that information into one and while allows it to upload and organize into the proper formatting. You will be able to quickly determine which jurisdictions has adapted to this change and which has not. We are all aware of the term “ethics” this is simply the moral values of right and wrong, and of course “business ethic” this is just being able to apply these moral values to any business. With business ethic the relationships are built between the suppler and the receiver (customer) and involves the morals of respect, sense of responsibility and awareness of emotions.

The normative theory’s overall goal is to provide the norms and standards that will help guide and a business to their desire’s outcome. The main object is to produce these entities within a business structure which shall shape and form the sustainability of a business longevity.  The three common theories are:

Social Contract Theory: This theory allows individuals to develop more of a moral and political obligation and is designed to function around a contract. Which helps both parties understand the business agreement.
