    Ethics: Activity 3

    (Answers can be encoded or written on a sheet of paper)

    Name: Aaliyah Suzanne C. Coca Date: April 14, 2024


    Yr. & Sec.: 2nd Year 2A

    Mr. X finds himself in a moral dilemma that challenges his integrity and ethical
    principles. Applying the seven steps to moral reasoning can help guide him toward a
    resolution.
    Firstly, Mr. X should recognize the ethical issue at hand, which involves being asked by his
    boss to engage in fraudulent activity by falsifying financial records. Secondly, he must gather
    all relevant information about the situation, including the potential consequences of
    complying with his boss's request and the possible ramifications of refusing.
    Next, Mr. X should consider his own values and principles. As a religious and honest
    individual, he likely values integrity and honesty, which conflict with the unethical behavior
    his boss is asking him to undertake. He must also consider the potential impact of his decision
    on himself, his career, and the agency.
    Fourthly, Mr. X should explore alternative courses of action. This may involve discussing
    the situation with trusted colleagues, seeking advice from ethical experts, or consulting legal
    counsel. He could also consider approaching his boss to express his concerns and explore
    alternative solutions that uphold ethical standards.
    Fifthly, Mr. X should assess the potential consequences of each alternative. While
    exposing the dilemma to the public may result in negative repercussions for himself and the
    agency, remaining silent would compromise his integrity and potentially lead to legal
    consequences. He must weigh these potential outcomes carefully.
    Sixthly, Mr. X should make a decision based on the information and analysis conducted
    in the previous steps. This decision should align with his values and principles, prioritizing
    honesty and integrity over personal gain or avoidance of conflict.
    Finally, Mr. X should take action to implement his decision. This may involve refusing
    his boss's request, reporting the unethical behavior to appropriate authorities, or resigning
    from his position if necessary to uphold his principles.
    In conclusion, Mr. X must navigate a complex ethical dilemma with integrity and
    courage. By following the seven steps to moral reasoning and prioritizing honesty and
    integrity, he can make a decision that upholds his values and serves the best interests of both
    himself and the agency.
