Discussion Question 1
• Due Date: Day 2 [Main] forum
• Post your response to this question: Answer Question 3 on p. 150 (Ch. 6) in Ethical
Leadership in Human Services regarding the ethical dilemma of a reduction in force
(RIF).
3. Consider the following ethical dilemma that was discussed earlier in this chapter:
Under the reduction in force (RIF) format, the supervisor, me, gets told on
Thursday what supervisees have to come in on Friday to get chopped, and they are
to be gone that day. . . . I personally believe that that’s unethical . . . not because it’ssevere, but because it’s not balanced . . . We would not tolerate any employee doing
that to us.
Since we have no idea what your textbook is, have you stated each question clearly? Sorry, but this post is not really clear.
As for the last post, WHO demanded you come in on a Friday to get chopped, especially if "they" are not there that day. WHO is not there? In any event, this is negative reinforcement! Read your contract to see if you are even obligated to follow that demand!
