Avery Joel 9509759117 January 28, 2007 Ethical Dilemma Hiring Based On Genetic Data Overall the use genetic testing with the intent of screening for existing or potential diseases is unethical. However, the topic is very subjective based on the specific job and how crucial job performance is. Some jobs relate to public safety and require a high level of health and performance, such as a commercial airlines pilot. A doctor, for instance, should have to disclose the information regardless of how the information is obtained or given. For certain jobs, invading a person s privacy is necessary. It is more ethical to care for the lives of the public rather than the job opportunities of an employee. However, there are also many instances where it is unethical and impermissible to use genetic testing to screen for diseases. A Costco employee, for example, should not be punished for having a history of breast cancer in his/her family. While the cost of replacing employees due to health reasons may be extremely high, it is wrong to make someone even more of a victim to a disease they were born into. A person has no business being a doctor if they have AIDS, so using genetic testing is justified. That same person, however, should not be screened for diseases if they were applying for a job that neither requires that same performance high level nor threatens public lives. Another point regarding this issue is how the information is obtained. If a person were applying for a job at Bank of America, the company has no right using a blood test to perform genetic testing. They would be using this blood test strictly to see if the employee would be a safe long run investment for the company. That is unethical. With or without a person s consent, almost all companies should not be allowed to do this. The only way a company should be allowed to use a blood test is if it is reasonably related to specific job performance. Blood tests should only be used to evaluate an employee s ability to perform, not their ability to remain a strong investment for the company. From a business standpoint it makes sense to find someone who can be dedicated and committed to a job in the long run. Replacement of employees can be costly, but invading a person s privacy and making them a victim of their own family s genetic makeup is downright unethical. Just because an individual has an increased chance at developing breast cancer, it shouldn t hold them from attaining any job. If I am running a company, I select my employees based on the performance and dedication they can commit to my firm. If health issues arise in the future then so be it.
