1 Strategic Design Thinking 22 nd November 2012 Ethics Ethics ethics: the study of moral standards and how they affect conduct CSR Corporate Social Responsibility: Companies moving beyond a base of legal compliance to integrating socially responsible behaviour into their core values Human rights, fair trade, local economic development, non-discriminatory employment practices, reducing waste and emissions, morally ethical products 2
2 Why is this important - financial The value of ethical consumerism in the UK is 20 billion, the cost to companies of ethically driven boycotts is 2.6 billion Ethical Consumerism Report MORI & EIRIS, 2003 Number of EU green, social & ethical investment funds 1984: : 303 Sustainable Investment Research International Group, 2003 Since its launch in 1994, the Dow Jones Sustainability Index has outperformed the FTSE World Index by 17% Financial Times, 21 July Ethical Dimensions Ecological Ethics - use of resources, carbon foot-print, biodiversity etc Supply Ethics - sourcing practices Product Ethics - moral practices 4
3 Ecological 5 Ecological To stabilise CO2 emissions in the industrialised world a reduction to 80% of 1990 figures is needed by Predictions suggest emissions will rise by 60% by 2030 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Ecological footprint (the amount of productive land needed top provide for current consumption) Fair earth share = 2 ha OECD average = 7.2 ha US average = ha Design Council Sustainability Briefing 6

8 Supply ethics There are 26,000,000 forced labourers in the world today (twice the number traded in the 400 year history of the African slave trade) even in the UK (illegal immigrants exploited by organised criminal gangs) Over 300,000,000 people live on less than $2 per day 300,000,000 children between 5 and 14 Working worldwide (150 million full-time) 15 Supply ethics 16
9 Supply ethics Chinese workers reportedly toil in "ipod City" Posted Jun 13th :24PM by Evan Blass Filed under: Portable Audio In much the same way that we'd rather not think about how the Big Macs we eat were produced, we also often ignore the manner in which our favorite gadgets are manufactured, because it's not as fun listening to tunes when you consider that the person who put together your DAP could be living like an indentured servant. And according to a recent report by the UK's Daily Mail entitled "ipod City," indentured servitude might not be a bad description of the working conditions inside the city-size Chinese factories that assemble the ipod nano and Shuffle, where the employees reportedly make about $50-a-month and live in crowded dormitories as thanks for working 15-hour days. 17 Supply ethics Ethical policies should cover: Health & safety issues Conditions of employment Compensation Working hours Immigration The environment Forced labour Child labour Discrimination Compliance with national laws The right of inspection Freedom of association 18

19 The designer s responsibility? Your personal ethical position? Your personal level of ethical literacy? Do you understand the ethical dilemmas in the product/service category that you work with? Do you understand the basic legal position? Do you understand best in-class ethics? Do you understand the ethical position of the firm that you are working with? Your ethical responsibility as a designer? The designer s ability to understand ethical position of the marketplace? The designer s ability to influence ethical decision making? 37 Ethics & your discipline? = Service Design = Product Design = Behaviours (DE) 38
20 Ethics & Strategy & Design Process? Process Change F E D A B C Product Ideas Product Change Is the project Developing in line With my ethical Position? Ethical Position Idea Screening Design Process Product Launch 39 Ethical Profiling Tool Exploring the moral standards that will be embodied within the proposed product/service This sheet will help you define the ethical targets that you might want a new product or service to achieve, in order to make it an appropriate proposition for users and consumers and your business/ organisation. Ecological ethics For Example Energy (production, distribution, consumption & disposal); Materials (Energy intensity, renewability, potential environmental damage); Supply ethics For Example Conditions of employment (wages, working hours, forced labour, child labour, discrimination, compliance with national laws, right of inspection & association, the working environment) For Example The impact on particular social issues and behaviours such as: health (cigarettes/alcohol obesity), data protection, manipulation of vulnerable etc, medical ethics, religous practices, consumer choice. Step 1 Consider the three categories of product/service ethics suggested below. For each category can you suggest 5 particular dimensions that will be most relevant to the the type of product/service you are exploring. Can you think of a way of measuring this dimension? Step 2 For each dimension you have listed what do you think the minimun standard might be for the type of product/service you are exploring? This might be based on a legal requirement, a code of practice. This might vary considerably from one region to another. a. b. c. d. e. a. b. c. d. e. a. b. c. d. e. M I N I M U M M I N I M U M M I N I M U M Step 4: PROFILING For each dimension you have listed consider where you are going to position your new product/service. Consider the ethical poistion of your business / organisation, its future ethical strategy & the ethical position of your intended market? Example BEST - IN - CLASS BEST - IN - CLASS BEST - IN - CLASS Step 3 For each dimension you have listed what do you think the best-inclass standard might be? Can you think of an exmplary business/ organisation/practice(s) that is(are) leading the way: a. b. c. d. e. a. b. c. d. e. a. b. c. d. e. 40
