Case Study

Corporate Social Responsibility Case Studies » Health Hazards Battles of IBM

Since the late 1990s, IBM had been rattled by legal suits filed by its former employees in California and New York, USA. Most of the plaintiffs sued IBM on the grounds that IBM had knowingly exposed them to harmful chemicals, which had caused severe health problems. IBM defended itself by stating that the health problems of its former employees could have been due to many other reasons as there had been no definite proof that employees in the semiconductor industry were prone to health problems only because of the chemicals used in the industry.

Pedagogical Objective

To discuss the occupational health hazards in the chip making of the semiconductor industry and how a verdict in favor of the plaintiffs would affect the entire chip manufacturing industry, which operates on similar working conditions, using the same chemicals with analogous potential dangers.

Ronda 'Water Management' Experiment:Worldwater (Philippines), Inc.

Water resource management was a problem in the Cebu water district of Philippines. Cebu was bidding to become a regional economic centre and the water crisis was hindering its plan. There was anecdotal evidence too of foreign investors backing out of possible investments and ventures in the Cebu metropolitan area due to the threat of an inadequate water supply to meet their production needs. The existing water districts' apathy and lack of incentive to take on the responsibility of managing the water resources induced the Philippines government to call for private sector participation. WorldWater Inc. set up a novel method of water supply and utilization on an experimental basis in the Ronda municipality, which is showing positive results.
