I have questions of Ethical or Unethical behaviour, and need to determine wether it relates to fairness, respect or honesty.
1. The police force in a small city refuses to hire a qualified polic-college graduate who has an artificial leg. This is unethical behaviour. It is unfair. Right?
2. An international drug company refuses to support a cruel dictatorship, even though the dictator has offered new cars for their executives every year. I am not sure on this one..
3. A patio-furniture manufacturer is a day late with an order to a large discount store. The store charges the manufacturer a $1000 penalty. I am not sure on this one.
4. A store holds a contest for a trip that costs more than $5000. The promotion is a failure, with only 16% entering. The store owner decides to honour its commitment and awards the winner the prize. I don't know..:(\
5. The boss's daughter gets a management job that a qualified and exceptional employee was expecting. This is unethical. It is unfair and no respect for his employees..Right?

5. I agree with your answer.
