Ch. 3 - Ethics & Social Responsibility

Apple has done a good job with their social and ethical reponsibilities this year. After the ten suicides at Chinese manufacturer Foxconn last year, Apple has investigated and reported child labor violation, toxic conditions, and other violations of their code of ethics. Using the Pyramid of Social Responsibility, I would illustrate Apple's actions against unethical/illegal conduct, and for Corporate Social Responsibilty (CSR) as a form to better society.
*Ethical Responsibility- Apple has eliminated dangerous working condition in two facilities and bribery in one facility.

Apple is committed to protecting the environment, health, and safety of its employees, customers, and the global communities in which it operates. We recognize that by integrating sound environmental, health, and safety (EHS) management practices into all aspects of our business, we can offer technologically innovative products and services while conserving and enhancing resources for future generations. Apple strives for continuous improvements in its environmental, health, and safety management systems and in the environmental quality of its products, processes, and services.
