What is ‘ethical implication’? What are examples of this?
Ethical implication’ is a term used by many people in the decision process to describe weighing the pros and cons of simultaneously entering into a, for example, materialistic dilemma.
Examples:
Purchasing a specific product over another could have an ethical implication of putting more money back into the company’s pockets; or buying something that is environmentally friendly over something that could harm the environment may have an ethical implication about preventing health problems down the line.
Skipping out on cleaning up after oneself at work may have an ethical consequence as it would be leaving your job unfinished and undone for others to handle in addition to receiving less respect from coworkers or supervisors.
