Essay from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Business Ethics, Corporate Ethics, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: This research paper examines the major ethical challenges within the fast-food industry in Kenya, focusing on employee treatment, promotion of unhealthy habits, environmental degradation, and hygiene standards. The literature review reveals that employees in the fast-food industry often face unfavorable working conditions and inadequate extrinsic motivation, such as fair wages and positive working environments. Unhealthy habits are promoted through aggressive marketing campaigns, leading to the consumption of nutritionally deficient fast foods, even at the expense of healthier alternatives. Moreover, the industry's reliance on home delivery services further exacerbates the problem by encouraging sedentary lifestyles.
