Task: write a report on how ethics can be managed at a local organisation

Your assessment brief:

Task: write a report on how ethics can be managed at a local organisation.

Holland and Barrett

Requirements:

1. Your report focuses on a specific organisation: you can choose any organisation (business, non-profit, or public sector) that has at least some of its activities in Greenwich. The only exception is that you cannot choose the University of Greenwich, as we explore this organisation in tutorials for learning purposes.

2. Your report analyses ethical risks involved in running this organisation, and how these risks can be mitigated and managed. Your report uses the frameworks discussed in this module. Frameworks you must use are: SDG, ethical infrastructure. In addition, your report uses two or three of the following frameworks: stakeholder mapping (network or PLU), trustworthiness (ABI), moral disengagement (Bandura), ethical theories (utilitarianism, deontology, virtue ethics or existentialism).

Guidance
