The plant manager has been informed that 200 workers will soon be laid off. A rumor is circulating and one of the workers, an old friend, asks the plant manager if the plant is closing and if he will lose his job. This presents an ethical dilemma for the plant manager, as telling the truth would breach loyalty to the company but not telling the truth would mislead the friend who is concerned for supporting his family. The plant manager must find a way to address this dilemma between truth and loyalty.
