Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Whistle-blowers are individuals who raise ethical concerns or issues in an organization. These individuals are a key part of a company's ethics program.
It is important for managers to assure employees who raise ethical concerns that they will face no personal or career risks.
In order to facilitate this, managers can set up toll-free ethics hotlines. Managers also need to create a culture where bad news can be heard and acted on before it is too late. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act offers some legal protection to whistle-blowers. According to one of its provisions, any manager who retaliates against an employee for reporting violations faces a stiff penalty of a 10-year jail sentence.
