2. INTRODUCTION:
Wal-Mart Store is an multinational retail corporation which runs the
chain of large discount department stores and warehouse stores in
American. This Wal-Mart Store was founded by Sam Walton in 1962.
The company was incorporated on October 31, 1969 and publicly
traded on New York Stock Exchange in 1972. This Wal-Mart Store is the
second largest public corporation around the world and it is also the
biggest private employer in the world with over two million employees.

3. CASE BACKGROUND:
The six female workers who working in Wal-Mart is the largest ever in
American civil rights history. This is a case accusing Wal-Mart stores
which is discriminating cases against US female workers. Two points
had allege that women employed in Wal-Mart stores according to the
2010 court of Appeals opinion which is women was paid less than
men, besides that the other opinion is receive fewer and wait longer
for promotions to in store management positions than men.

4. Ethical issue that was raised by the case of Wal-Mart Women was
discrimination women in the workplace. Job discrimination is an unethical
behavior. Discrimination means to distinguish someone on the basic of
prejudice or morally attitude. There are six women who had worked in Wal-
Mart sued Wal-Mart about their paid and opportunity of promotion is less
than the men work in Wal-Mart although their experience, qualification and
performance is better than men.
ETHICAL ISSUE:

5. QUESTION 1
WHAT FINANCIAL IMPACT DO YOU THINK THE LAWSUIT COULD POTENTIALLY
HAVE ON WAL-MART? DO YOU THINK THE WOMEN DESERVE TO WIN THEIR
LAWSUIT? WHAT IF THE OUTCOME OF THE CASE COST WAL-MART SO MUCH
IT HAD TO LAY OFF THOUSANDS OF ITS WORKERS AND CLOSE STORES?
 Financial impact is an expense or fall in revenue arising out of
a disaster, change in market conditions, failure of a product, or
other events under or beyond a management's control. Wal-
Mart is such an effective competitor that it is gradually forcing
down the wages and living standards of retail workers who
aren't even employed by Wal-Mart. The company could face
billions of dollars in demands for back pay and punitive
damages. The real Wal-Mart conflict isn't between capital and
labor. It is a battle involving consumers and cost-efficient
producers against traditional retailers, organized labor, and
community activists. Women deserve to win this lawsuit
because they also has a rights as a worker or employee.
Every working female enjoys the same employee rights that
are bestowed on a male colleague. It is illegal to discriminate
against a female employee at any stage of employment. A
qualified female applicant cannot be denied employment
because of being a woman. She has equal right to promotion,
vacation leave and other benefits provided by the employer.

6. QUESTION 2
WHAT ARE THE MAJOR MORAL COMPLAINTS OF THE FEMALES SUING WAL-
MART? DO YOU BELIEVE THOSE COMPLAINTS ARE JUSTIFIED? WHY?
 The major moral complaints of the females suing Wal-Mart is
the discrimination against female employees in promotions,
pay, management training and job assignments, such as:
 1. Female employees also receive fewer and wait longer for
promotions to in-store management position than men.
 2. Female employees are paid less than men in comparable
positions, despite having higher performance ratings and
greater seniority.
 3. There is unequal distribution of management training
among the male and female employees.
 4. Male employees are allotted a better job assignment
compare to women employees even though they are equally
qualified, ranked and experienced.
 Yes, I strongly believe that these complaints are justified
because it is clearly stated above that the female employees
in Wal-Mart were not treated fairly and equally.

7. The factor of wrong perception of higher level between men and
women employee. Drogin found that 65 percent of hourly
employees were women, but only 33 percent of salaried
managers were. The hourly employees such as store
cashiers, associates, stock people, department heads, and
support managers while salaried manager like store manager
and assistant manager, above them are district manager,
regional vice presidents, and senior vice president. Apart from
that, based on the Drogin report said women employee
perhaps to raise children or for some other reason and it
causes women left their jobs more than men. Means that,
most of the women employees were hired at the lower level
compare to men employee. Secondly, the factors that I think
might account for the discrepancies the Drogin report
uncovered is based on the subjective analysis of performance
or job experience. Based on the assumption Drogin report that
women left their jobs mare than men, perhaps to raise
children of for some other reason.
Question 3
What factor do you think might account for the discrepancies the Drogin
report uncovered?

8. In order for Wal-Mart to correct these discrepancies
they should make opportunity for women
employees to advance in the organization. The
women employees are also able to manage and
develop an organization to successfully base on the
skills, knowledge, and talent found within them.
Women are also able to hold an office as integrity
and the best manager.
QUESTION 4
WHAT IF ANYTHING, DO YOU THINK, WAL-MART SHOULD DO TO CORRECT THESE
DISCREPANCIES? SHOULD THE COMPANY INSTITUTE AN “AFFIRMATIVE ACTION” PROMOTION
PROGRAM FOR FEMALE EMPLOYEES? IF SO, WHAT SHOULD THIS PROGRAM BE LIKE?

9. Of Course! Because after studying the case Wal-
Mart Committed Gender Discrimination Against
Its female worker.
DO YOU THINK THE WOMAN DESERVE TO WIN THEIR LAWSUIT?
