Workplace Issue: Ethical Dilema JARED DAVIS BEHAVIOR SPECIALIST ABC BEHAVIORS
Case Study Overview An employee in this case study is facing an event that will prevent him from working for a predetermined period of time. The leader of the department advocates for someone else to take on a job that they both know is unethical in addition to disclosing details about this staff member's private life to another individual. A discussion concerning prejudice in the workplace is also taking place between two workers. There are numerous ethical problems that are evident in this case study.
Ethical Concerns Shelly cannot instruct the class accurately. According to APA Ethics Code Standard 2.01 (a), psychologists only work with populations and in areas within which they are qualified to do so, based on their education, training, supervised experience, consultation, study, or professional experience (Rocchio, 2020). Shelly learns intimate details regarding Jack from Rachel. Psychologists are not permitted to divulge personal information outside of therapy sessions and have a duty to protect relevant details, even when it comes to work and life information unless they feel that the individual may severely harm themselves or others (Leach & Akhurst, 2023)

Ethical Decision Making with the Fisher Model Eight steps are provided for making ethical decisions in Fisher's book "Decoding the Ethics Code," published in 2003. It functions as a step- by-step guide for choosing moral behavior. How it functions is: Prior to you becoming wrapped up in a moral bind, make a commitment to act morally. Familiarize yourself with the code of ethics from the American Psychological Association. Become aware of any applicable laws or professional guidelines.

Ethical Decision Making with the Fisher Model Continued Consider things from the perspectives of the various individuals who your actions will affect. Speak with your coworkers to get additional thoughts and create a conversation (while respecting their privacy). Make an outline and consider the possibilities. Decide which course of action seems the most morally correct, then follow through on it. Evaluate the efficacy of your plan and adjust as necessary. As necessary, revise the ethical plan and continue to assess it.
Proposed Resolution In regard to this entire situation, if I were Shelly, I would not only decline to provide instruction in the class due to this whole situation being based on bribery and discrimination. I would also decline to instruct the class for which I do not meet the requirements to do so. I would also notify whoever I had to regarding the department chair disclosing private information.
