Deontology theory looks at the ethicalness of an action not from the consequences
perspectives, but factors other than good or bad outcomes. The rightness and
wrongness of an action and practice lives in the motives. Motives can be based on

duties motivating a decision or action; rightness or ethicality depends on the respect
shown for duty, and the rights and fairness that those duties reflect

positives impact, Melvin’ action considered as unethical under consequentialism

Answer question d
Equilibrium - It is the horizontal dimension of Islam and it is all about ádl. To maintain the
sense of balance between have(s) and the have not(s), Allah stresses the importance of
giving and condemns the practice of conspicuous consumption.

employees in the most appropriate and ethical manner. Mamasu also must always alert its
main priority is to care consumer healthy as consumer is a main reason Mamasu been
successful of product beauty and not for the self-interest motive of those greedy profit by
harm consumer health. It seems like the equilibrium axiom is lacking in practice as what is
mentioned in the case. (Concentration is more on fulfilling self-interest than the interest of
the stakeholder and other) Thus, Mamasu should stop producing skin care which will harm
consumer. By this then, the concept of equilibrium is well practiced.

Answer question a
It may distort the trust of an employee to employer as blind loyalty does reflect an abuse to
employees’ morale. Employee may be left in a confusion situation of deciding the right and
the wrong acts. This situation does create an unhealthy environment at workplace
It may provide a medium to encourage corruption in an organization as employees will be
following all orders and instruction as given including those which are illegal and
unpermitted by laws. When a wrong practice has become a routine, employees will
continuously practice it as something which is right and permitted. This may negatively
affect the overall performance of a business.
Answer question b
consequences of whistle-blowing.
Whistleblowing naturally forces employers into a very defensive position. When serious
information has been leaked to the public, the ramifications may range from public
embarrassment to severe repercussions for the entire company, all the way up to
organizational collapse.
whistleblowers bypass the chain of command because they fear repercussions for going
against the company. The hazard if employees routinely ignore the chain of command in
communicating issues or concerns is that it negatively affect this important system of
management and authority. Company leaders need to create a culture that encourages
employees to communicate concerns internally to avoid potential degradation of respect
for management.

PART B. QUESTION 3: (25 marks)
Answer question a
Environmental Protection/Green Environment - it is in the best interest of firms to protect
for the sustainable future the long-term availability of the resources on which they depend.
concerns over pollution, waste, natural resource depletion, climate change and the like
continue to fuel the CSR discussion and heighten expectations for proactive corporate
action (e.g.: replanting of trees, recycling of waste, handling and disposing toxic waste, noise
and air pollution)
Community Involvement Activities - cultural differences have added to the complexity of
CSR as expectations of acceptable behavior vary regionally. With increased power comes
increased responsibility and globalization has fueled the need to filter all strategic decisions
through a CSR lens to ensure optimal outcomes for diverse stakeholders. (e.g.: donations,
sponsorship, adoption of wildlife animals)
The Power of the Brand: Brands are today the focal point of corporate success and much of
the health of the brand depends on public perception of the corporation. In other words,
reputation is key and honest CSR is a way to protect that reputation and therefore the
brand. Product/Service Improvement or Contribution (e.g.: information on product quality,
research and development, product safety and responsiveness to customer’s complaints)
Answer question b
This theory defines situations in which managers are not motivated by individual goals but
rather as stewards whose motives are aligned with the objectives of their principals.
Stewardship theory is a theory that managers, left on their own, will act as
responsible stewards of the assets they control. Stewardship theorists assume that given a
choice between self-serving behavior and pro-organizational behavior, a steward will place
higher value on cooperation than defection.
The ability of the company to align the espoused values with that of the enacted values
helped them to follow exemplary corporate governance and CSR practices voluntarily.
Display stewardship behaviour in protecting the interests of the shareholders and society.
So when a business group is able to align its espoused values with that of the enacted
values, the managers exhibit stewardship behaviour
Answer question d
It would appear that the separation of powers may be more beneficial for a company in the
long run. In an ideal corporate world, there would be input from two strong minds on the
board an executive salaried CEO and an independent non-executive Chairman. Indeed,
separating the chair and CEO roles can promote overall board independence while allowing
the CEO to focus on the everyday demands of managing a company.
the roles are usually split in an effort to ensure better governance of the company, and in
turn bring higher returns to investors. When the CEO-chairman relationship is strong, the
company benefits from having twice as much talent at the top, each playing a distinct

leadership role, and each supporting the other. In some corporations the CEO sits on the
board, even serving as chairman. Combining the roles does have its advantages, such as
giving the CEO multiple perspectives on the company as a result of their multiple roles, and
empowering them to act with determination.
