MNGT 6000 Question 2

Researcher Adams wants to conduct a work sampling study and
decides to research how much time is spent at the water coolers and what
employees say there. He believes the best way to do this is to install a hidden
camera and microphone. Adams wants to be sure proper research ethics are
followed. He determines that because employees voluntarily came to work here
and abide by company policies and decisions, this takes care of informed
consent. He does not intend to let others know of the results except the Board
of Directors so confidentiality is there. What is your assessment of Adams and
his approach? Would you approach the work sampling differently?
