ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
INTRODUCTION
Business ethics (also corporate ethics) is a form of applied ethics or professional ethics that
examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that arise in a business
environment. It applies to all aspects of business conduct and is relevant to the conduct of
individuals and entire organizations.
Business ethics has normative and descriptive dimensions. As a corporate practice and a
career specialization, the field is primarily normative. Academics attempting to understand
business behaviour employ descriptive methods. The range and quantity of business ethical
issues reflects the interaction of profit-maximizing behaviour with non-economic concerns.
Interest in business ethics accelerated dramatically during the 1980s and 1990s, both within
major corporations and within academia. For example, most major corporations today
promote their commitment to non-economic values under headings such as ethics codes and
social responsibility charters. Adam Smith said, "People of the same trade seldom meet
together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against
the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices." Governments use laws and regulations to
point business behaviour in what they perceive to be beneficial directions. Ethics implicitly
regulates areas and details of behaviour that lie beyond governmental control. The emergence
of large corporations with limited relationships and sensitivity to the communities in which
they operate accelerated the development of formal ethics regimes.
By Richard T. De George
The term 'business ethics' is used in a lot of different ways, and the history of business ethics
will vary depending on how one conceives of the object under discussion. The history will
also vary somewhat on the historian—how he or she sees the subject, what facts he or she
seeks to discover or has at hand, and the relative importance the historian gives to those facts.
Hence the story I'm going to tell will be somewhat different from the story someone else
might tell in various particulars, and I hope that instead of being a dull recitation of facts it
might in fact prompt some discussion at the end by those who would tell a somewhat
different story. The story I will tell has three strands, because I believe the term business
ethics is used in at least three different, although related, senses. Which sense one chooses
therefore gives priority to nature of the history of the topic. The primary sense of the term
8
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
refers to recent developments and to the period, since roughly the early 1970s, when the term
'business ethics' came into common use in the United States. Its origin in this sense is found
in the academy, in academic writings and meetings, and in the development of a field of
academic teaching, research and publication. That is one strand of the story. As the term
entered more general usage in the media and public discourse, it often became equated with
either business scandals or more broadly with what can call "ethics in business." In this
broader sense the history of business ethics goes back to the origin of business, again taken in
a broad sense, meaning commercial exchanges and later meaning economic systems as well.
That is another strand of the history. The third stand corresponds to a third sense of business
ethics which refers to a movement within business or the movement to explicitly build ethics
into the structures of corporations in the
Form of ethics codes, ethics officers, ethics committees and ethics training. The term,
moreover, has been adopted world-wide, and its meaning in Europe, for instance, is
somewhat different from its meaning in the United States. The "ethics in business" sense of
business ethics. In this broad sense ethics in business is simply the application of everyday
moral or ethical norms to business. Perhaps the example from the Bible that comes to mind
most readily is the Ten Commandments, a guide that is still used by many today. In
particular, the injunctions to truthfulness and honesty or the prohibition against theft and envy
are directly applicable. A notion of stewardship can be found in the Bible as well as many
Other notions that can be and have been applied to business. Other traditions and religions
have comparable sacred or ancient texts that have guided people's actions in all realms,
including business, for centuries, and still do.
If we move from religion to philosophy we have a similar long tradition. Plato is known for
his discussions of justice in the Republic, and Aristotle explicitly discusses economic
relations, commerce and trade under the heading of the household in his Politics. His
discussion of trade, exchange, property, acquisition, money and wealth have an almost
modern ring, and he makes moral judgments about greed, or the unnatural use of one's
capacities in pursuit of wealth for its own sake, and similarly condemns usury because it
involves a profit from currency itself rather than from the process of exchange in which
money is simply a means.1 He also gives the classic definition of justice as giving each his
9
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
due, treating equals equally, and trading equals for equals or "having an equal amount both
before and after the transaction.
In the West, after the fall of Rome, Christianity held sway, and although there were various
discussions of poverty and wealth, ownership and property, there is no systematic discussion
of business except in the context of justice and honesty in buying and selling. We can expect
all three to remain vibrant and interacting for the foreseeable future. Ethics is a branch of
social science. It deals with moral principles and social values. It helps us to classify, what is
good and what is bad? It tells us to do good things and avoid doing bad things. So, ethics
separate, good and bad, right and wrong, fair and unfair, moral and immoral and proper and
improper human action. In short, ethics means a code of conduct. It is like the 10
commandments of holy Bible. It tells a person how to behave with another person.
So, the businessmen must give a regular supply of good quality goods and services at
reasonable prices to their consumers. They must avoid indulging in unfair trade practices like
adulteration, promoting misleading advertisements, cheating in weights and measures, black
marketing, etc. They must give fair wages and provide good working conditions to their
workers. They must not exploit the workers. They must encourage competition in the market.
They must protect the interest of small businessmen. They must avoid unfair competition.
They must avoid monopolies. They must pay all their taxes regularly to the government. In
short, business ethics means to conduct business with a human touch in order to give welfare
to the society.

DEFINITIONS
"Business ethics is the study of business situations, activities, and decisions where issues of
right and wrong are addressed."
By Luanne Kelchner
Ethics are the principles and values an individual uses to govern his activities and decisions.
In an organization, a code of ethics is a set of principles that guide the organization in its
programs, policies and decisions for the business.
The ethical philosophy an organization uses to conduct business can affect the reputation,
productivity and bottom line of the business.
Leadership Ethics
The ethics that leaders in an organization use to manage employees may have an effect on the
morale and loyalty of workers. The code of ethics leaders use determines discipline
procedures and the acceptable behaviour for all workers in an organization. When leaders
have high ethical standards, it encourages workers in the organization to meet that same level.
Ethical leadership also enhances the company’s reputation in the financial market and
community. A solid reputation for ethics and integrity in the community may improve the
company’s business.
Employee Ethics
11
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
Ethical behaviour among workers in an organization ensures that employees complete work
with honesty and integrity. Employees who use ethics to guide their behaviour adhere to
employee policies and rules while striving to meet the goals of the organization. Ethical
employees also meet standards for quality in their work, which can enhance the company’s
reputation for quality products and service.
Leaders and employees adhering to a code of ethics create an ethical organizational culture.
The leaders of a business may create an ethical culture by exhibiting the type of behaviour
they'd like to see in employees. The organization can reinforce ethical behaviour by
rewarding employees who exhibit the values and integrity that coincides with the company
code of ethics and disciplining those who make the wrong choices.
A positive and healthy corporate culture improves the morale among workers in the
organization, which may increase productivity and employee retention; this, in turn, has
financial benefits for the organization. Higher levels of productivity improve the efficiency in
the company, while increasing employee retention reduces the cost of replacing employees.
Ethical problems and phenomena arise across all the function areas of companies and at all
levels within the company.
1. Ethics in compliance
Compliance is about obeying and adhering to rules and authority. The motivation for being
complaint could be to do the right thing out of the fear of being caught rather than a desire to
be abiding by the law.
2. Ethics In Finance:
The Ethical issue in finance is that companies and employees are confronted with include:
12
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
Executive compensation.
Fake reimbursements.
3. Ethics in Human Resources
Human resource management plays a decisive role in introducing and implementing
ethics. Ethics should be a pivotal issue for HR specialists. The issues of ethics faced by
HRM include:
Discrimination issues i.e discrimination on the bases of age, gender, race, weight etc.
Sexual harassment.
Affirmative Action.
Occupational safety and health.
4. Ethics in Marketing:
Marketing ethics is the area of applied ethics which deals with the moral principles behind
the operation and regulation of marketing. The ethical issues confronted in this area
include:
Misleading advertisement.
Children and marketing.
Black market, Grey market.
5. Ethics of Production:
This area of business ethics deals with the duties of a company to insure that products and
production processes do not cause harm. Some of the more acute dilemmas in this area
arise out of the fact that there is a as usually a degree of dangour in any product or
production process and it is difficult to define a degree of permissibility.
13
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION

14
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
Requires education and guidance: Businessmen must be given proper education and
guidance before introducing business ethics. The businessmen must be motivated to use
business ethics. They must be informed about the advantages of using business ethics. Trade
Associations and Chambers of Commerce must also play an active role in this matter.
Relative Term: Business ethics is a relative term. That is, it changes from one business to
another. It also changes from one country to another. What is considered as good in one
country may be taboo in another country.
New concept: Business ethics is a newer concept. It is strictly followed only in developed
countries. It is not followed properly in poor and developing countries .What are types of
business ethics?
The principles of business ethics developed by well-known authorities like Cantt, J.S Mill ,
Herbert Spencer, Plato , Thomas Garret , Woodred , Wilson etc are as follows.
1).Sacredness of means and ends: the first and most important principle of business ethics
emphasize that the means and technique adopted to serve the business ends must be sacred
and pure. It means that a good end cannot be attained with wrong means , even if it is
beneficial to the society.
2). Not to do any evil: It is unethical to do a major evil to another or to oneself, whether this
evil is a means or end.
3).Principle of proportionality: This principle suggest that one should make proper
judgment before doing anything so that others do not suffer from any loss or risk of evils by
the conduct of business.
4). Non-cooperation in evils: It clearly point out that a business should with anyone for
doing any evil act.
5). Co-operation with others : This principle states that business should help others only in
that conditions when other deserves with help.
6.) Publicity: According to W.Wilson, anything that is being done or to be done, should be
bought to the knowledge of everyone. If everyone knows, non gets opportunity to do an
ethical act.
15
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
7.) Universal Value: According to the principle the conduct of business should be done on
the basis of universal value.
8.) Human Dignity: As per this principle, man should not be treated as a factor of production
and human dignity is maintained.
9.) Equivalent Price: According to W. Wilson, the people are entitled to get goods
equivalent to the value of money that he will pay.
10.) Non-Violence: If businessman hurts the interest and rights of society and explains the
consumer by overlooking their interest this is equivalent to violence and unethical act.
1. TRANSACTIONAL ETHICS.
Business transactions are the interaction between business and their customer, vendors and
other with whom they do business. Transaction can be very simple, like buying a newspaper
or extremely taking a long time and involving many companies or agencies new technology
and around the management of business transaction. There is a thin relation of buyer and
seller principle of honesty principle of reciprocing.
2. PARTICIPATORY ETHICS.
Participatory ethics is an integral part of business ethics these are the action some of which
are guided by common interest and some share interest all participatory involved in the
16
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
business. Participate and cooperative to produce a common goods for the betterment of the
society and organisation.
The goods can only be released through the participation of all parties. Through participation
may be profitable by participating party of the society, but some of parties have to participate
have the survival.
3. RECONGNITIONAL ETHICS.
(1) An act of intellectual apprehension, such as when we ‘recognize’ we have made a mistake
or we ‘recognize’ the influence of religion on American politics.
(3) The act of acknowledging or respecting another being, such as when we ‘recognize
someone’s status, achievements or rights (upon the different meanings of recognition, In
wood, 1992: 245-47; Margalit, 2001: 128-129). The philosophical and political notion of
recognition predominantly refers to, and is often taken to mean that not only is recognition an
important means of valuing or respecting another person, it is also fundamental to
understanding ourselves.
A business is not just about money making at all costs. There are considerations to be made
outside traditional money making and ethical and moral considerations.
A business should have a positive influence on its immediate surroundings and the people
that live in the community by creating jobs and playing a significant role in the economical
and social welfare of the community. The effect of unethical practices by a business will
create a bad reputation and distrust among the employees and the community. Businesses
with integrity and high ethical standards establish long lasting relationships with the
customers they deal with. Many business make the mistake of putting profit before customer
satisfaction, while they might get away with it initially and appear successful, in the long run,
the business is bound to fail as no customer wants to feel short-changed. It is important that a
degree of transparency in all dealings be present and ambiguity be eliminated. This is
17
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
because even if the transaction was fair, the presence of hidden expenses will generate
distrust leading to bad will.
The business administrators have a duty to the shareholders, employees, and the community;
therefore, they need to keep to an ethical approach in all dealings. It is important that set
ethical standards be made part and parcel of the companies culture and included in all
dealings associated with the business.
Marketing advantages over their competitors. Customers readily invest in the companies
through shares and also want to establish long lasting business relations with the
company.
The performance of employees improves with good ethical policies present in a
company. Morale is high and employees feel obligated to put in their all to continue to
make it a success.
Reputation management: a bad reputation is created by unethical behavior which will
eventually lead to a scandal. A scandal will result in falling stock prices, anxiety, and
low morale among employees as well as government and public scrutiny and inquests.
Legal and financial incentives: companies known for their high ethical standards and
education of employees on ethical polices are provided with strong legal and financial
incentives by regulatory bodies.
Customer satisfaction is a vital factor in successful business strategy.
Repeat purchases/orders and enduring relationship of mutual respect is essential for the
success of the company.
Investors are concerned about ethics, social responsibilities and reputation of the
company in which they invest. Investors are become more and more aware that an
ethical climate provide a foundation for efficiency.
Regulators eye companies functioning ethical as responsible citizen. The regulator need
not always monitor the functioning of the ethical sound companies. The company earns
profit and reputational gains if it acts within the confines of business ethics. To
summaries, companies that are responsive to employees’ needs have lower turnover in
staff.
18
ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
Individual opinion of what is ethical varies, hence the importance for the company to set
standards that represent and are applied throughout the organization. The Human resource
team is the starting point of ethical reformation in an organization. The careful selection and
training of the human resource team is necessary if they are to train other employees on
ethics. Sound ethical policies in a company create a unified and morally sound approach to
business practice.
Conclusion
Ethics are the building block of our society and thus should be the building block of our co-
operation. If you built that foundation, both the moral and the ethical foundations, as well as
the business. Then the building wouldn’t crumble. It is not essential to let greed cloud
judgment. It can be concluded that it is the high time business ethics should be practices all
over the globe in the benefit of the common society as described in the paper. It is not only in
the favour of the mass but also has advantages for the corporate.

CHAPTER – 4

ETHICS IN BUSINESS ORGANISATION
SUMMARY
Business ethics is a form of applied ethics or professional ethics that examines ethical
principles and moral or ethical problems that arise in a business environment. It applies to all
aspects of business conduct and is relevant to the conduct of individuals and entire
organizations. Business ethics has normative and descriptive dimensions. As a corporate
practice and a career specialization, the field is primarily normative. The term 'business
ethics' is used in a lot of different ways, and the history of business ethics will vary
depending on how one conceives of the object under discussion. The history will also vary
somewhat on the historian—how he or she sees the subject, what facts he or she seeks to
discover or has at hand, and the relative importance the historian gives to those facts. The
primary sense of the term refers to recent developments and to the period, since roughly the
early 1970s, when the term 'business ethics' came into common use in the United States. Its
origin in this sense is found in the academy, in academic writings and meetings, and in the
development of a field of academic teaching, research and publication. The "ethics in
business" sense of business ethics. In this broad sense ethics in business is simply the
application of everyday moral or ethical norms to business. Perhaps the example from the
Bible that comes to mind most readily is the Ten Commandments, a guide that is still used by
many today. In particular, the injunctions to truthfulness and honesty or the prohibition
against theft and envy are directly applicable. Ethics is a branch of social science. It deals
with moral principles and social values. It helps us to classify, what is good and what is bad?
It tells us to do good things and avoid doing bad things. So, ethics separate, good and bad,
right and wrong, fair and unfair, moral and immoral and proper and improper human action.
In short, ethics means a code of conduct. It is like the 10 commandments of holy Bible. It
tells a person how to behave with another person. They must encourage competition in the
market. They must protect the interest of small businessmen. They must avoid unfair
competition. They must avoid monopolies. They must pay all their taxes regularly to the
government. In short, business ethics means to conduct business with a human touch in order
to give welfare to the society.

This study was carried out with the following objective:
1.) To get inside in the business ethics implementation in the LIBRA COMPANY.
2.) To measure the satisfaction level of employees regarding business ethics implemented in
their company.
In this study convenience sampling technique has been used to reach the final sample. As a
final sample 100 respondents has been approached and to collect valuable information
questionnaire method are used. For the purpose of analysis of collected information or data,
percentage method was used. This study has a great importance because we got to know that
most of the employees are not aware of the various factors that play an important role in the
ethics in business organisation. By conducting various programs in organisation we can ask
them to work on those companies which would help them in improving their abilities at
personal as well as on organisational level.
