令和2年度 ITパスポート試験 問2
This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 2
Incorrectア
This option lists a, b, and c but leaves out d (respecting the intellectual property rights of others). Respecting intellectual property rights is directly tied to obeying laws such as copyright law and patent law, so it is naturally a matter to be considered as part of compliance; a combination that excludes d is therefore incomplete.
- イ
正解 Compliance (obeying laws and regulations) does not stop at observing laws and regulations; it is a broad concept that also covers acting in accordance with basic rules such as social norms, corporate ethics, and internal company regulations. Item a (obeying traffic rules) and item d (respecting the intellectual property rights of others) are about observing the laws themselves; item b (prohibition of entertaining public officials) is a social-norm and corporate-ethics requirement to prevent bribery; and item c (complying with the company's own work rules) is about observing internal company rules—all of them are matters that must be considered as part of compliance. Therefore, the option that lists all of a, b, c, and d, namely “イ”, is correct.
Incorrectウ
This option lists a, c, and d but leaves out b (prohibition of entertaining public officials). Excessive entertaining of public officials can lead to bribery and is a matter to be observed from the standpoint of laws, social norms, and corporate ethics alike, so a combination that excludes b is incomplete.
Incorrectエ
This option lists b, c, and d but leaves out a (obeying traffic rules). Traffic rules are a clear law—the Road Traffic Act—and obeying them is likewise within the scope of compliance, so a combination that excludes a is incomplete.
- Compliance is not merely obeying laws and regulations in the narrow sense; it is a broad concept that also includes following basic rules such as social norms, corporate ethics, and internal company regulations.
- For a question that asks which option lists all applicable items, judge each item individually for whether it applies, then choose the option that includes exactly the applicable items—no more and no fewer.
