DISCUSSION
1. Basic Fairness
Ethical decision-making processes should center on protecting employee
and customer rights, making sure all business operations are fair and just,
protecting the common good and making sure individual values and beliefs of
workers are protected.
Example:
a. Partners – Suppose you are a partner in a business and see a
great deal of profitability on the horizon. You don't believe that
your partner deserves to profit from the business' future success
because you don't like his personality. You may wonder if you
could simply take his name off the bank accounts, change the
locks, and continue without him. If you proceed with this course
of action, you would likely be in violation of your ethical and
legal obligation to act in good faith concerning your partner.
What to Do? : The better course of action may be to simply
buyout his interest in the business.
b. Gross Negligence – Suppose you are on the board of directors
for a publicly traded corporation. You and your fellow board
members, in hopes of heading off early for the holidays, rush
through the investigatory process involved in a much-
anticipated merger. As a board member, you have a duty to
exercise the utmost care respecting decisions that affect the
corporation and its shareholders. Failing to properly investigate
a matter that affects their interests could be viewed as gross
negligence supporting a breach of your ethical and legal duty.
3. Distribution Dilemmas
Ethics is a prime concern in marketing, and the areas of price, placement,
and promotion are no exception.
4. Fraud
Fraud in business takes up so many forms and sizes. It can be in the
form of financial misconduct or misrepresentation.
6. Unfair Communication
Communication used to undermine relationships or encourage social
immorality is unethical communication. The exact definitions of these
depend on the ethics system of your culture, but most people agree that
ethical communication builds positive relationships, while unethical
communication impairs them.
Here are some examples of unfair communication in business practices.
7. Non-respect of Agreements
is a breach of contract. A breach of contract is a legal cause of
action in which a binding agreement or bargained for exchange
is not honored by one or more of the parties to the contract by
non-performance or interference with the other party’s
performance.
8. Environmental Degradation
is the deterioration of the environment through depletion of
resources such as air, water, and soil; the destruction of
ecosystems and the extinction of wild life.
Environmental economics concludes that environmental
degradation results from the failure of markets, whereas the
entrepreneurship literature argues that opportunities are
inherent in market failure.
While it may not arise to the level of being illegal, unethical behavior
in the workplace can have serious consequences if unaddressed. And it can
create a toxic work environment in which your employees and business
ultimately suffer.
2. Establish Protocols
Include in your code of ethics instructions about how to report
unethical behavior. For example, set up an anonymous ethics hotline
as well as a clear protocol for reporting, such as requesting a private
meeting with the appropriate manager or supervisor.

3. Empower employees.
Grant staff the know-how to appropriately identify and handle ethics
violations. Accomplish this by implementing ethics-training programs for all
new and existing employees to increase the effectiveness of the code.
