General Notes:

Read the ‘Instructions for Submitting Coursework’ and ‘Plagiarism and Academic Honesty’ sections of the Module Handbook.

If the research is done properly you might have far more information than you can fit in the word limit. So you must select the relevant and important bits of information carefully. This is very important.

You can limit the scope of your report by focusing on a selected number of issues as examples of what the company does. This must be stated (and briefly justified) in the introduction.

Avoid mere description.

You can provide factual information in charts or tables (such as lists of policies/programmes dealing with various stakeholders).

Style and presentation are important so check for spelling, punctuation and grammar at the very least. Stick to the point and avoid repetitive sentences.

Use an essay format – including introduction and conclusion. The introduction should be brief, describing what you did and how you did it (methodology). The conclusion must not introduce a new topic and should relate the results of your analysis to what you said the essay was going to do in the introduction. (It is best to write the final version of the introduction in the end).

Provide all references – and in correct format.

Do not use any folders or binder to submit your work. A staple in the top left-hand corner is sufficient.

Notes on content:

Identify key stakeholders and classify them according to power, influence and/or interest. Some justification for your classification is expected i.e. why do you think a particular stakeholder is important. Keep this brief but do think about it carefully. The industry, type of company and external pressures should be taken into account.

Present findings of your research: what type of ethical policies does the company have (e.g. for employees, for ensuring fair trading, for treating its customers honestly and fairly, etc). Probe beyond legal requirements (discrimination etc). Look for codes of conduct, customer charters, service level pledges, statements of core values and other similar documents. Comments made by the Chairman (and/or other senior office holders such as CEOs) in annual reports or other company literature might also provide useful information.

Does the company have any policies or programmes dealing with pollution, waste management, recycling, energy conservation or other environmental issues?
