Engineer B distributed the brochure while Engineer A was still employed but had been given a notice of termination
Text references
Engineer B distributed the brochure while Engineer A was still employed but had been given a notice of termination
it was not unethical for Engineer B to distribute a previously printed brochure listing Engineer A as a key employee providing Engineer B apprised the prospective client during negotiation of Engineer A's pending termination
this could easily mislead potential clients into believing that Engineer A, noted as a key employee, would be available in the firm for consultation on future projects
