What issues may arise if Lenovo (China) started to provide single-occupancy housing arrangements for its foreign employees to accommodate their needs for privacy while continuing to provide shared dormitories for its Chinese employees?
What will be an ideal response?
Distributive justice is the main concern here. If Lenovo gives these foreign employees special treatment, the Chinese employees are likely to demand the same treatment, as they too, have privacy needs. If these demands are met, it will lead to a huge increase in cost for Lenovo. If these demands are not met, it will most probably lead to resentment and a sense of unfairness amongst the Chinese employees due to differential treatment. Here it is clear that equal treatment of all employees fails to meet individual needs, but an individual-oriented policy is not a viable solution.
