Health-Tech Materials is a firm that manufactures medical equipment purchased by hospitals and clinics. The firm employs over 2,500 workers in its two manufacturing facilities located in Texas and Arizona. Recently, Health-Tech dismissed a number of employees for ethics violations ranging from improper Internet usage to stealing company funds. In addition, the firm has been sued by two former employees for wrongful discharge. As a result, Health-Tech's top executives are evaluating the firm's hiring process, ethics training system, reward system, and disciplinary system to determine how to promote ethics and fair treatment.
Which of the following best supports the argument that Health-Tech should distribute an opinion survey to employees?

◦ Independent contractors working for Health-Tech are not allowed to work for the firm's competitors, which angers most contractors.
◦ Health-Tech managers have been reluctant to terminate unqualified employees for fear of lawsuits and other forms of retaliation.
◦ Exit interviews at Health-Tech indicate that employees feel uncomfortable about raising ethics concerns with managers.
