Call a lawyer for legal advice, however, there's two schools of thought on
this:
Will this affect your professional standing in the community? Will you
loose designations or certifications over this? Do you have the request in
writing? Can you blame someone else? If you DO have the reqest in writing,
then cover your rear and I would do it. It's not worth arguing over. If
you don't get blamed, then don't worry about it.
However, the ethical matter, if you REALLY have an ethical issue, then tell
them to pound salt. Your professional integrity should be something you
value more than anything, and it's one thing they can't take away. However,
the job market sux right now, so I'd stick with the first point.
Legal issue? If your company is asking you to lie, then I'd keep a lawyer
on call...

Subject: legal question?????
Hello,
Not sure if anyone can answer this question/concern
for me but will ask anyways.....I have been creating
some reports for HR that will be used internally to
keep track of our employees work(ie number of items
completed, average numbers etc). One of the averages
I am being asked to report will be a very skewed
number and I am concerned because these averages are
used to "grade" employees. People have been let go
over these numbers. Bottom line is, I do not want to
have any numbers on my report that I already know are
skewed. I expressed my concern to my employer and
they agreed that the numbers will be off but they want
it anyways and they say they will take that into
consideration. Am I in anyway liable or am I being
paranoid???
:)
Thanks,
