 Exposing factory workers to risks for the benefit of others is deemed ethically acceptable when they agree to do the work and are paid a fair wage. The solution suggested for the ethical concern of non-beneficial research is to obtain consent and pay research participants a fair wage for their efforts. This view is much less restrictive than current regulations for clinical research, but seems to be less permissive than a Libertarian analysis. The latter difference is evident in claims that research studies should treat participants fairly and not exploit them, even if individuals consent to being so treated.
