Investigating Effects of Technology in Ethics at Workplace: An Academic Guidance Perspectives on Method of Studying Effects of Technology onto Ethics

There is need to study ethics along technology, since each piece of technology brings in significant novel forms of power and hence the changes being brought in by each technology piece must be well delimited, at least academically. The objectives of such studies remain towards betterment of society at large. In this manuscript, the book “Business Ethics Tutorial”, is referenced here, more precisely its unit 3. The methodology applied here is to read in between the lines of the notes preached in that booklet, and formulate/extract and adapt questions pertaining to ethics with respect to a particular technology being studied. Of course, all questions thereby proposed may not have equal applicability for every piece of technology being studied: some questions are more pertinent for one technology while others are more pertinent for other technologies. This element remains to be studied when studying the particular technology chosen. It is therefore recommended to readers to read this manuscript alongside the business ethics booklet from tutorialspoint.
