Case study 1:

We will analyzed the issue first. In this situation, the factual is the sample of company
discharge to city sewer having the amount of lead and arsenic that have negative effects to
human health. And the supervisor is tell that the company discharging is obey the city law.
For the solution, first of all, the engineer must have deeper investigated for the result of
testify is correct and the law of city about the amount of discharging heavy metal of company are
violate the law are not. If the company is not violate discharging law, there nothing the engineer
can do in situation. But in the hand, if the truth is company violate the law, the engineer need
another talk with her supervisor to persuade for stronger pollution controls. The conversation
should be support base on the engineer will hold paramount of priority public safety and welfare
means that the result of testify is truthfully announce and the company may face higher penalty
fee for unlawful discharging. And if the company can have some way to prevent her for public
the testify, the long term effect of heavy metal join to fertilizer and food change of citizen nearby

the case studies, there are no choice that violate law so we will not consider it here. In other
hand, we could chose the define for “good” as profit in money, since George family is in the
strain of money, taking the job for short term ( a half to 1 year) can ease the strain for his parent,
in contrast, if George refuse to join the Lab, may be there no much difference in the research
result.
