The present paper focuses on the ethical issues resulting from recruitment outsourcing in Bangladesh. It is a case based explorative study. Besides secondary data, both outsourced employees and employers who engage in outsourcing for their organization were interviewed to reach the valid data. Poor salary and benefit structure of the outsourced employees, different folded discrimination between in-house and outsourced employees, employee poaching from the competitors with the help of 3rd parties are some of the findings of the study that are creating ethical dilemma for organizations and employees as well. Both from the demographic perspective and subject matter the study is original one.
