Paper 1 · Business Ethics
The people living around a factory, affected by its noise and by the jobs it offers, are known as which stakeholder group?
Athe local community
Bthe shareholders
Cthe suppliers
Dthe debenture holders
Explanation: A stakeholder is any group affected by what the business does. The local community neither owns the firm nor trades with it, but it bears the pollution, congestion and noise and gains the employment, so it has a clear stake. Shareholders own it, suppliers sell to it and debenture holders have lent to it.
