5/12/15 Case Study Response (50 word min)

Hands off, Please

Ava loves her new job.  Recently, her supervisor, Keith, has been making her feel very uncomfortable.  In spite of her objections, Keith finds ways to get physically close to her, brushing lightly agains her or playfully cornering her in a room.  On one occasion, while Ava was dispensing mail in the mailroom, Keith quietly entered the room and snapped her bra strap.  Ava was so shocked she didn't respond.  

She really needs this job and doesn't want to anger her supervisor.  She often laughs off his advances and tells him her boyfriend would not like this.  She doesn't have a boyfriend but is hoping Keith might take the hint.  She is starting to feel anxiety about going to work and worries about getting trapped along with Keith.  She is also hesitant to confront Keith's supervisor for fear of this response.  What should Ava do?  

5/13/15 Case Study (50 word min)

Recall or Regret?

Darius is a quality assurance supervisor for an auto parts manufacturer.  He discovers a flaw in a part used in diesel engines.  He believes the flaw may not necessarily be dangerous, and he knows is could require several months of testing and re-engineering to fix.  

The factory has already produced and shipped 5,000 of these parts.  Darius knows the company is in financial trouble and would be devastated if they were required to recall the parts.  A recall now could also result in the layoff of hundreds of workers.  However, its his job to ensure the parts are perfect and he can't stop thinking about it.  Even though he thinks the defect is harmless, what if it isn't?  What should Darius do?

5/6/15 Wednesday Case Study (50 word min)

CJ is a data analyst for a major casino and has to work after normal business hours to finish an important project.  He realizes he is missing data that was sent to his coworker Dane.  Recently, CJ noticed Dane typing his password and learned what it is.  He decides to log into Dane's computer and resend the data to himself.  

Upon doing so, CJ sees an open e-mail to a local sports book regarding gambling bets Dane placed over the last several days.  CJ knows all casino employees are forbidden to engage in gambling activities to avoid any hint of conflict of interest.  He knows he should report this but would have to admit to violating the company's information technology regulations by logging into Dane's computer.  If he warns Dane to stop his betting, he would also have to reveal the source of his information.  Dane would know he used his password.  What does CJ do in this situation?
