1. What are the ethical issues raised by
this case?
Jawab :
The issue is company
try to reduce the cost by using several cost cutting program. In this program,
there are many things change to be worse such as the number of equipment
operators on each shift had been reduced from twelve to five and many of the
best operators quit and replaced with workers whose education was below that
required by company. The effect from this program is 2000 people death and
200.000 other peole get injure by accident which happened in December 1985 at
Unioan Crabide Corporation.
2. Did the legal doctrine of “limited
liability” apply to protect the shareholders of Union Carbide Corporation
(U.S.)?
Jawab :
No, The shareholders
didn’t protected by legal doctrine of limited liability. The company can’t pay
the compensastion of accident which killed 2.000 person and 200.000 others get
injured. The compensation had amount around $35 Billion, meanwhile the
liability of company reported only about $200 million. The company’s stock
tumbled and the shareholders losses of more than $1 billion. Finally, Company
was close because they were forced to bankrupt.
3. Were the indian operations, which were
being overseen by the managers of Union Carbide Corporation (U.S.), in
compliance with legal or moral or ethical standards?
Jawab :
Indian operations is legal and has
moral point because they get blessing from indian government and Indian operations has a good purpose which is
to increase production of the pesticides, it desperately needed to raise food
for india’s huge population. But, they are didn’t do ethical standards well
because for reduce costs they make a program which called several cost-cutting
programs. In this program, the company try to reduce costs without considered a
risk of the program in the future.
