Just how far should an employee go with loyalty? Are there boundaries?
NeX [460]

Answer:

Ethically speaking, a worker should develop absolute loyalty to a company, or place, he/she works for, as it shows an adaptation and acceptance of the company´s values, principles, and fundamental aspects. This loyalty will ensure that a worker will carry out his/her duty to the best of her/his ability, always in the best interest of the company at large.

However, I do believe there must be a boundary to how much loyalty a person has towards a company, and especially, when this loyalty is pushing the person to perform an activity that basically undermines that person´s own personal values and principles. So, there should be a boundary when the loyalty to a company crosses the line and overcomes the personal limitations, the concience, if you will, of a worker.

For example, if you are a nurse, and the hospital you work for asks you to hide certain information from adverse events that have taken place due to a possible malpractice, or due to institutional shortcomings, but you know that the right thing to do is to hand over such information, for the greater good of patients and their families, over the welfare of the hospital itself, then I believe that the nurse should take the necessary measures, and overcome her loyalty. This event goes over personal boundaries and surpasses any possible loyalty that a worker may be required to have.

In a protein supplement that contains 154 total kcalories, 11 grams of protein, and 17 grams of carbohydrate, how many kcalories
Llana [10]

Answer:

In this protein supplement there are 11 grams of protein which contribute with 44 kcalories. Therefore, the percentage of kcalories coming from protein in this particular supplement is 28,5 %.

Explanation:

Each gram of protein contributes 4 kcal (calories), so 11 grams of proteins x 4 kcal/gram = 44 kcal.

The total amount of kcalories is 154, so 44 kcal / 154 kcal x 100 = 28,5%.

When it comes to protein supplements is very important to realise how many proteins are being consumed and how many total calories this supplement has, for the simple reason that it might be not help to reach the protein goal for a particular individual, but instead, it might be providing too many calories that come from non-protein compounds.
