Collaboration overload compares to utilitarianism because the whole

reason why “collaboration overload” exists is because the collaboration is

happening for the usefulness and benefit of the organization as a whole.
Utilitarianism is the idea that actions should be taken for the betterment of the
company, not just the one person. Also, collaboration is related to liberties/rights
because it gives everyone the chance to voice their concerns and opinions, and
their team can give feedback/suggestions to improve the idea. Collaboration
overload compares to the three ethical decision criteria because although it is
mainly done for the betterment of the organization, it also gives each employee
that is involved to feel like what they must “add on” will matter in the final
decision. It is probably not best for an organization to have an overload, since it
uses a lot of resources and slows down the decision-making process, but
organizations seem to think that employees collaborating is still a good idea (and
an efficient one at that).

Collaboration overload can be considered as an unbalanced combination of the

three criteria since the whole “collaboration overload” concept is existed because
of the collaboration, which is similar to utilitarianism - the idea that actions should
be taken for the betterment of the organization as a whole, not just the one
person. Also, collaboration is related to liberties/rights because it gives everyone
the chance to voice their concerns and opinions, and their team can give
feedback/suggestions to improve the idea. In this chapter, it’s stated that nearly
20 to 35 percent of those collaborations that actually add value come from only 3
to 5 percent of the employees. As more individuals need their assistance,
employees' workloads have increased. Justice states ethical choices are those that
are ought to make in accordance with moral rules, standards, principles, laws, or
other legal requirements. Being anti-collaboration could be against social norms
in workplaces where it is becoming a practice. It is probably not best for an
organization to have an overload, since it uses a lot of resources and slows down
the decision-making process, but organizations seem to think that employees
collaborating is still a good idea (and an efficient one at that).
