While sitting at his desk, John received an email that was obviously not meant for him. It appears that he was inadvertently copied in the email. The email is from Robert to one of Robert's customers in an outside consulting business that Robert runs. The company does not prohibit employees from having outside businesses, but it does prohibit the use of company assets for personal gain. In the email, Robert is promising his customer that he "will run a complete analysis of the data on the company computers" and have the results by the end of the day. Robert has realized his emailing error and has asked John to not say anything. Robert is trying to raise money to pay for life-saving surgery for his wife. Which of the following is the most appropriate response. While Robert's actions may be in technical violation of company policy, Robert's needs to help his ailing wife justify the action. John is comfortable concluding this this does not present an ethical dilemma. John sees nothing wrong with using company computers in this manner, He has himself used the company computers to check on his eBay business. As long as he is okay with Robert's actions, he can feel comfortable that this situation does not pose an ethical dilemma, regardless of company policy. Now that John has been brought into the situation, he must complete the Ethical Decision Making Framework and decide what kind of action he must take. John is aware of a potential violation of company policy and needs to protect his job. The ethical decision making framework does not require John to take actions that could have negative implications for himself
