Protecting the Unborn

see instruc tions

“Protecting the Unborn at Work ”  Please respond to the following:

1. From the case study, support or challenge the moral status of Johnson Control’s fetal policy. The U.S. Supreme Court highlighted studies that showed men working in the factory also placed their potential offspring at risk because the lead exposure negatively affected sperm. Reexamine the factory’s policy in light of this evidence, and determine whether or not it is morally justifiable to prevent women, who could reproduce, from working in the factory while simultaneously permitting men, who could reproduce, to keep their jobs. 

2. Fetal welfare policies like the one presented in the case study require that job candidates reveal extremely private information about their sex lives and reproductive capacities to potential employers when seeking a job. Determine whether or not you believe that companies ever have the right to require that job candidates provide this kind of detailed information.
