Moral Rights Approach
Content: The concept that individuals should be compensated for the cost of their injuries by the party responsible and also those individuals should not be held responsible for matters over which they have no control. Procedural justice requires that roles be administered fairly. Rules should be clearly stated and be consistently and impartially enforced. Compensatory justice argues that individuals should be compensated for the cost of their injuries by the party responsible. Moreover, individuals should not be held responsible for matters over which they have no control. The justice approach is closest to the thinking underlying the domain of law in Exhibit because it assumes that justice is applied through rules and regulation. This theory does not require complex calculations such as those demanded by a utilitarian approach, nor does it justify self interest as the individualism approach does. Managers are expected to define attributes on which different treatment of employees is acceptable. Questions such as how minority workers should be compensated for past discrimination are extremely difficult. However, this approach does justify as ethical behavior efforts to correct past wrongs, playing fair under rules and insisting on job relevant differences as the basis for different levels of pay or promotion opportunities.
