Health and Safety in the Workplace
Last week, you met with Jackie about her time and attendance issues. She said that she understood and would try to do better.
A few days ago, one of the female employees calls you and tells you that Jackie is passed out in the Lady’s Room. You rush over, having called the EMT’s. When you arrive there, you see that Jackie is unconscious and is lying on the floor. Next to her is a rolled up dollar bill with white powder by it.
The EMT’s take Jackie to the hospital. Several days later, she calls you and tells you that her Primary Care Physician has approved her to return to work with no restrictions.
How do you handle this situation?
If Jackie filed for Worker’s Comp, based upon your knowledge of the situation, does she have a claim and should the company oppose her request?
If so, why so? If not, why not?

OSHA
You are the Manager of a multi- story office building, which requires siding repair work.
One contractor gives you a proposal, that includes the usage of appropriate scaffolding, per OSHA requirements, alongside the walls in order to protect the workers. The price for the job will be an inclusive $10,000
Another contractor comes to you and makes a proposal whereby he will do the work for $5,000.00. He does not think that there is a need for scaffolding, as he has been doing this type of work for twenty years, has always relied upon ladders and has never had anyone fall.
The owner of the company is constantly facing a cash crisis and wants to go with the lower price.
How do you handle this issue? In your answer, please explain what employers should do to remain in compliance with governmental health and safety rules and regulations.
The owner has gone with the lower bid. One day the OSHA inspector comes upon the scene. It is rumored that the company who did not get the bid called the inspector to let OSHA know that work was being done without scaffolding.
How do you handle the owner’s response and the OSHA issue?
Ethics in the Work Place
You are the Regional Vice President of Sales for a large company. The company sponsors an annual trip to a MLB game. While there recently, you meet your colleague from another region. While talking with him, you offer to buy him a beer. He declines, stating that he is a weekly regular in AA and has been alcohol free for 8 years. He tells you that you are the first person in the company, who knows this, and that he would like to keep this matter private between the two of you.Last week, you learn that you and he are up for promotion to Vice President of Sales for the whole company. The job requires a great deal of travelling and lots of socializing/wining/dining of current and potential customers and suppliers.One of the members of the screening committee is a personal friend. You truly want this job and believe that, if it just slips out that the other person has had a drinking problem, such would tip the scale in your favor.Do you tell or not? Why? Why not?
