New Media Ethics

Unethical means the activities conforming to accepted standards of social or professional behavior. It is the wrong contrary to conscience or morality or law, society would not accept it. 

There were four of unethical practices of company which is dumping, labor union opposition, discriminating employees, and copying the style of packaging in order to mislead the consumer. Those of elements of unethical practices, discriminating employees is the main problem of human resources in organization. Equality now is guaranteed by law, but some of people also will discrimination of people who are not same color of skin, religious, or opinion. 

The real example of an unethical activities in organization is McDonalds fast food. McDonalds are the famous fast food restaurant in the whole world and populated by large group of people even they are different age, race, religious and gender. 

McDonalds also will refer different country and come out different menu of meal such as BBQ pork sandwich in Korea and Pepper chicken burger in China, those of menu are special in the country only, and other country doesn’t have it. 

And in Malaysia, there are Halal country and not allow pork food selling in here, but other McDonalds in other country have to sell the pork burger. For example Thailand. Thailand was nearly our country and it was amazing and fun place, so many people also would have to visit it with their family and friends, especially Malay person. 

When they visit Thailand country and having lunch or dinner meal in McDonalds fast food restaurant in Thailand. They are don’t know pork burger are available sell in McDonalds and they don’t know what the pork burger look like, so that they actually choose wrong burger and eat it. 

The employee of McDonalds are responsibility to tell to Malay customer about what they purchase and remind them they have purchase pork burger, it they make clear about the pork burger are available sell in there, so that Malay customer will change it and make sure they are don’t eat the pork burger. 

McDonalds needs to take it serious and find out what public needs, try to fulfill what they needs and do more research about different culture, to know more about what the rules of cultures, so that they can come out more good services and meal to customers.
