Business Ethics
In my view the dilemma experienced at the
7/eleven breaches regulations/law. One must
understand that a dilemma might be wrong or true.
The act which considered as a dilemma must be
analysed to conclude if that act is affecting the
large group of people or just an individuals
(Loader, 2016). The result of the act also plays a
bigger role in determining that act.

The dilemma concerning 7-eleven chain stores
is a breach of law/regulation due to the
following factors
• The chain engaged in wage fraud
• They hired people who did not have visas
• Workers went without pay for approximately 7-8
weeks
• Coercion where they would be threatened with
deportation

Conclusion
• Employer must understand that the most important
assets it has is its employees. This is because, any
other activities carried out in the company is
controlled by the human power. For this reason, the
management must make sure the relationship
between the junior and senior employees are good.
