Also: “First; the formal employee drove without a license for 1-2 months in Puerto Rico. We taught her to drive, which she was excited about. You might think this is a substantial legal risk, but basically it isn’t, as you can see here, the general range of fines for issues around not-having-a-license in Puerto Rico is in the range of $25 to $500, which just isn’t that bad.”
Nonlinear appears to grapple with discerning the confluence of legality, costs, and ethical considerations in this particular scenario. It may be tempting to view this action as bearing relatively low criminal risks, given that the primary concern is likely monetary fines. However, we must also inquire whether it constitutes a judicious norm or ethical practice to enlist multiple employees in undertaking illegal activities on behalf of the organization. For, despite the ostensibly trivial nature of the potential financial consequences, the greater cost may be in terms of fostering a secure working environment—one in which employees can thrive, experience validation, and be treated with the utmost respect.
The delineation of boundaries within utilitarian decision-making often proves intricate and context-dependent, as is characteristic of ethical deliberations. Yet, one might reasonably posit that, given the financial means available to Emerson, acquiring a necessary license examination for an employee or personally obtaining recreational drugs should not pose an insurmountable challenge.
Central to this discourse is an examination of the organizational environment under consideration and how it presents itself to the global community.
