TASK:

1. Does a company like BP that has gone through a major disaster like its 2005 refinery explosion in Texas have a higher-than-normal obligation to behave in an ethical and above-board manner?

2. Contrast the actions and changes made by BP with other organizations which have experienced failures. In your response describe the role of the company's ethics reporting systems, appropriate risk management, managers, and compliance officers played in the outcome.

Examples include: The Tylenol recall in 1982, the Toyota floor mat recall in 2009-2011, consumer data breeches, etc.
