3.Moral principles
This paper develops a framework for makeing moral judgments concerning human resource management that consists of five complementary moral principles. The five moral principles
Have been selected for inclusion in the framework for three primary reasons (Pojman,1989; Rachels, 1999; Velasquez, 1998). First, the principles are supported by the research of philosophers; by using moral principles that have been extensively studued by philosophers, we are able to build on a well-developed existing literature. Second, the principles are commonly used in practice to make moral judments, even though the people using the principle may not be familiar with the formal arguments developed by philosophers concerning the principles. Finally, each of the five principles examines ethics from a different perspective; by using the five complementary principles together, we are more likely to consider the relevant moral issues in reaching a judgment about human resource management ethics
