Ashford University Week 4 Consumer Safety Discussion please see attachment for instructions …I have attached it to the word document … if you need addition information please let me know .I will be posting what you need for the reference . thank you for the help Prepare: In preparation for your first
post in this discussion, you will become
familiar with the case of Perdue Farms
by means of the material listed under
Required Resources (Generally). You
will also find more material under
Required Resources (Per Subject
Heading) because the specific task for
this discussion is to examine this case
with an eye for any one of the following
four subject headings in business ethics:
(1) the environment, (2) advertising, (3)
consumer safety and (4) moral
responsibility. You must select one of
these subject headings and your
selection will be the specific focus of
your work for your discussion.
Accordingly, you will be responsible to
complete the readings and videos listed
under your chosen subject heading.
Reflect: If you choose the environment
subject heading, reflect on the sheer density
of chickens raised at any given time in the
Perdue facilities. The disposal of their
discarded remains and their processing for
distribution, either individually and most
definitely together, pose a number of
environmental concerns.
If you choose the advertising subject heading,
reflect on how the two videos on Perdue
farms present the sharp contrast between the
way the company presents its product and
the way in which it has been discovered to
run its chicken farms. Consider whether this
is an example of failure to provide truth in
advertising and how you would support such
a stance.
If you choose the consumer safety subject
heading, reflect on the way in which
chickens raised in factory farms risks
consumer safety. These might include (a)
bacterial contamination, (b) the effects of
antibiotics on the meat that is consumed, or
(c) the release of adrenaline, cortisone, and
other chemicals resulting from the acute
stress endured by factory farm animals,
which then becomes part of the meat that is
later consumed by humans.
If you choose the moral responsibility
heading, reflect on the stewardship role that
may fall upon humans toward non-human
animals. Can we utilize them as mere means
to an end (for entertainment, companionship,
or food)? Or do we have special obligations
toward them (e.g., not to mistreat or torture
them and to slaughter them quickly and
without stress) because they are sentient
beings?
Once you have completed the indicated
readings and videos, reflect on the ethical
theories that we have covered in the
discussions thus far and identify one that you
want to apply for your analysis in your
discussion post.
Also, reflect on the regulations (or lack
thereof) in the factory farming industry in
order to be able to examine how our nation’s
laws affect the operations of the
business. You will need to research the
applicable laws on the factory farming
industry.
Finally, since Perdue Farms is an American
corporation, reflect on the mixed economic
system in the United States in order to
articulate the setting for the operations of
factory farming, and then, be able to analyze
the ethical actions of Perdue given this
setting.
Write: In the first part of your initial post,
you will need to introduce the Perdue case
within the particular subject heading that
you have chosen. In this introduction, you
will also need to (1) articulate the relevant
characteristics of our mixed economic system
and (2) present the regulations for the factory
farming industry. These will provide the
setting for you to be able to examine how the
nation’s laws affect its operations.
In the second part of your initial post, present
your analysis of the problem in a way that
identifies which entities (Perdue as a
corporation, the economic system in the
USA, the regulatory control of the state, or all
of these) have a role in the problem that you
have presented. In your analysis, you must
assess the negative effects of the interplay
between business activity and one of the
following: the environment, advertising,
consumer safety, or corporate social
responsibility. Your focus must be an ethical
analysis of this interplay, and it must be well
supported by reliable and/or scholarly
sources by clearly identifying the ethical
theory that you are applying in your analysis.
Revise: Read the feedback provided by your
professor to your initial post, either directly
to you or to your fellow students. Use this as
an opportunity to learn from your professor,
especially with regard to the best ways to
apply the course material and your research
to your analysis. On the basis of what you
have learned in this process, post an
improved revision of your initial post that
applies the additional knowledge that you
have gained.
Remember that your grade depends on the
quality of your initial and revised responses,
not just on the submission of an attempt at
improvement. It is thus to your advantage to
post the best initial post you can and then to
also improve that best effort as much as you
can through revision. Taking this process
seriously will help you develop the skills you
need to do well on the Final Project.
Requirements for Your Initial Post:
•
•
•
Your initial post should be at least 300
words in length and have citations and
references in APA notation. It should
address the prompt in its entirety. This
means that you should not split your
response to the prompt in multiple posts.
Your examination should be both
thorough and succinct. This is a
combination that demands time and
thought, so give yourself sufficient time
to draft and revise.
Please be advised that until you post, you
will not see what your fellow students are
posting. Once you submit your post, you
will be able to view the posts from your
other classmates. You can then proceed to
reply to at least two different threads
based on the required material for this
discussion.
Your list of references for your initial post
should include the videos and the other
required reading material for this
discussion, the Instructor Guidance, and
any other announcements presented to
you by your professor. List all the course
material that informed your work in the
list of references and cite these too where
appropriate. In addition, your references
should include any other sources that you
consult to inform yourself (but not
Wikipedia or similar sources).
