The complete question is:

Ethical Dilemma

A matter of Delegation

Harrington, who was responsible for insuring that new product lines met federal safety guidelines, realized that the new safety guidelines were not implemented by his boss Golopolus while he was aware of such changes in the safety guidelines.

Because Golopolus gave him a job, Harrington felt loyalty to him and didn’t want to lose him by interfering even though he knew that the non-implementation of the guidelines would impact the company (Rockingham Toys).

Should he question Golopolus about implementing the new safety guidelines?

What do you do?

Three options are given.

1. Prepare a memo to Golopolus, summarizing the new safety guidelines that affect Rockingham product line and requesting his authorization for implementation.

2. Mind your own business. Golopolus hasn’t said anything about the new guidelines and you don’t want to overstep your authority. You've been unemployed and need this job.

3. Send copies of the reports anonymously to the operations manager, who is Golopolus’s boss.

The correct answer is:

1. Prepare a memo to Golopolus, summarizing the new safety guidelines that affect Rockingham product line and requesting his authorization for implementation.

Explanation:

This would be the best option due to the fact that, in this way Harrington will be formally informing to his boss about the delay in the safety guidelines process; even though, the boss already knew about this information. With a memorandum, the worker will leave a precedent about the arrangements in order to complete the task, and he would be also making the authorization about the procedure in a formal way. Therefore, if it is claim in the future about the execution of the process, with the proof of this memorandum he will  have al the tracking about the safety guidelines authorization and implementation.
