    The desire and need for a code of ethics in public health came out of growing recognition of the inadequacies of medical ethics for guiding public health decisions (Kanekar & Bitto, 2012). There was an absence of an explicit set of ethical guidelines for organizations that dealt with public health to follow. During the annual APHA meeting in 2000; the PHLS Ethics Work Group, comprised of the Public Health Leadership Society (PHLS), along with local and state public health professionals, public health academia, representatives from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the American Public Health Association (APHA) were encouraged to come together and initiate the process of writing a code of ethics for public health (Thomas,…

    Ethics and moral obligations are issues we all encounter at one time or another. In the professional setting, all people should act in a manner that would uphold the good of society. To be ethical, one has to determine their obligations, moral ideas, and moral philosophy (Boatright, p. 19, 2009). The case analysis involving Jacob Franklin was a perfect example of how an individual can face the dilemma of doing what is right or wrong. Businesses have their own code of ethics, and the employees within the business have to determine whether or not they will follow the company’s code of conduct. I will discuss several ethical issues in the case analysis including; failure to report information, remaining silent regarding faulty equipment, and paying cash as a form of consideration to clients once the contract was signed. Ethical behavior in business is consistent with the principles, norms and standards of business practices agreed upon by society (Boatright, p.4, 2009). Jacob Franklin decides to go against the code of ethical behavior for job security and personal gain.…
