If the employee can present a prima facie case, then the employer must indicate, non-discriminatory legitimate reason for the decision. Once the employer has a reason, the employee must demonstrate pretext: that the reason…

influential Principles of Biomedical Ethics (hereafter, Principles), Beauchamp and Childress first proposed that it might be possible to make “substantative and universalizable” (Gillon) claims about medical ethics, on the basis of respect for four prima facie principles derived from a “common morality,” or a set of norms shared by all persons (Beauchamp and Childress, 1979). These principles are autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficience, and justice, and roughly speaking refer to the normative…

What is the goal of ethics in the context of respecting rights and the ethics of duty in the criminal justice system? The ultimate goal is to do what is right and morally sound as law enforcement officers. Many times officers forget what the badge that they wear upon their chest represents; it stands for honor and integrity.

Utilitarianism suggests that the rightness or wrongness of an action depends solely on how they affect happiness or welfare. However, in Ross’ Ethics of Prima Facie Duty, all duties attempt to maximize happiness and welfare in some way. The duties beneficence, gratitude, and self-improvement are especially important to consider when trying to maximize happiness and welfare. These objections…

Respect for patient autonomy is one of the principal pillars taught to medical students, a practicing physician’s greatest responsibilities, and is one of the most debated issues in medical ethics. Patient autonomy, in the medical practice, is the legal right of the patient to make final decisions about one’s medical care. In the health care system, however, too many times we see health care providers making decisions for their patients, oftentimes against their will. These providers will argue…

W.D Ross in 1877-1971. He states that there are seven prima facie duties that needs to be taken into consideration when deciding which duty should be acted upon. A prima facie right: is the right of an individual has in any situation that is different from an absolute right, which is universal, inherent and cannot be overridden in any circumstances.
