SUMMARY OF THE ETHICAL DILEMMA
 One of the colleague at the workplace informs that her daughter is very ill and requires
surgery.
 The colleague had no insurance and the surgery would require $10,000.00.
 After some time she reports that her daughter is fine, and she paid the surgery by taking
money from a dormant account in the bank.
 She also reports that she has started paying back to the account little by little.
 The ethical dilemma– whether or not I should report her fraudulent action to higher
authorities.

MAIN ISSUE:1
 Reporting her action will cause suffering for her family as they are already in economic
crisis.
 The money taken from the account eventually served for the ultimate good of the family.
 She has also promised to return the money gradually, which means there will ultimately be
no harm for the organization or the depositor.
