There were also mentors that would favor their protégés and expedite the qualification process for this person to make themselves look good and boost their evaluation. This corrupt display of actions will cause the pupil or other workers to believe this is the proper way to do things and will pass the unethical behavior on to the next trainee and so on. Fast-tracking on critical training can also make the workers within the organization believe that the policies and guidelines are not set in stone, leading to rebellious actions toward company procedures. Another issue When signing your signature on the qualification paper you are conforming that this person has the proper knowledge and abilities to be qualified for the task, therefore putting you responsible for any further problems that may arise due to lack of knowledge because of bypassing important training. I feel that this is a perfect example when it comes to ethical
