The Main Ethical Issue Will Be NKF Mismanaging The Funds
The Main Ethical Issue Will Be NKF Mismanaging The Funds
donated from the public. NKF has been using the media and campaigns to garner
donations aggressively. Most donors donate assuming that majority of their
money will go to the cost of kidney dialysis for needy patients, as this is primarily
advocated on the media. However, only 56percent of the donations went to the
patients, which was lesser than the donors’ expectations. Unethical practice is
present as funds not managed as advocated due to indulgence in unnecessary
peripherals like CEO flying first class and excessive campaigning.
On the other hand, viewing from the perspective of the organization, the
situation can be ethical. Although the company had a massive pool of reserves,
consistent donations are still required to ensure seamless support to the patients
and administration. Though excessive funds may have been used for
campaigning services, it can be viewed as a mean to garner more donations that
is beneficial to the patients in the long run. High remunerations may also act as a
positive incentive for staffs to work harder and bring in more benefits to the
organization. Thus this issue can be a dilemma as it can be viewed from different
perspectives.
