Ethics: A Decision about Employee Monitoring

I don't think it matters. Making mistakes costs us money. We've shown them that costly mistakes are increasing and nothing has changed. Knowing that they are being monitored will help them to focus on the training. What do you think we should do?

conduct an ethical analysis to ensure that implementing monitoring software is appropriate

The first step in any ethical analysis is to...

get the facts

i think the next step would be...

to look at our options and the potential outcomes

in my opinion...

we have done enough work and we're ready to make a decision. i recommend option #1

what's the next step in the review?

we need to see who will be affected by this decision

i think...

we should review our company policy and ethics guidelines by running this through HR and also talking to our senior managers. We need to answer some more questions: Have we ever faced a decision like this before? Are there any precedents?

Well...

we shouldn't install the monitoring software when there is ethical uncertainty regarding a decision. An ethical analysis can provide a framework to help ensure that we do the right thing.
