Here's an example:\nTheory and experiment alike become meaningless unless the scientist brings to them, and his fellows can assume in him, the respect of a lucid honesty with himself (J. Brownowski, personal communication, September 1, 2000).

I DONT THINK THEY LOOK AT IT AS AN ETHICAL CHOICE,  ITS BUSINESS.  AS A BOSS I WANT TO KEEP THE BEST WORKERS HAPPY SO THAT THE SLACKERS EITHER LEAVE OR PICK UP THEIR PACE.   I THINK ITS NECESSARY FOR A MANAGER TO COMPARE HIS/HER EMPLOYEES WHEN THERE IS A PROMOTION IN LINE.  THE BEST WORKER SHOULD GET AHEAD.

Professional ethics deals with things in your professional life or in your job.  Personal ethics are those things that are not related to your job and are usually more private.

Start with the NEC national electrical code. Then there are NFPA XX standards which address specific industries.\n\nAlso, UL underwriters lab and OSHA occupational Safety Health Assoc. standards.\n\nIf that is not enough, look into TORT law cases against companies who failed to take people in consideration in their design.\n\nOne injured person is worth 10 engineer's career

Morals are things like the majority of people agree are not right i.e.'Do not kill' etc... Ethics have more to do with making the right/wrong choice in life that are in the grey areas of life. Example, you are attempting to help out a friend by submitting their resume to your boss but when you read your friend's resume you see clearly that your friend could easily take your job because your friend is more qualified then you. Do you give the resume to your boss and help out your friend that really needs a job or do you never submit the resume to your boss and lie to your friend about it?

Yes it is....it not only violates moral ethics, but may also violate your workplace ethics as well.  Speak to your superiors about this situation because it may have been going on for quite some time....

If I understand your question, it is about how managing ethical standard in technlogy shapes the work environment or culture.  Well, technolgoy has given us many modes of communication. If one works in an office where "anything goes", there would undoubtedly be pornography and other improper things on the computers, instant messages and e-mails to employees that are unwanted and considered harrassment, etc.  \n\nHigh ethical standards and rules that are enforced keep the work environment comfortable.  It ensures that sexual harrassment and things does not happen.\n\nSue

There are no ethics involved when you do lie about something. You have also stolen the information. You have destroyed a trust. You have given a competitor an advantage he would not have had and hurt the first company's future business. You have hurt your fellow employees. You may well have ruined your own reputation as well.

I'm not sure that your marketing instructor will appreciate this, but even though your environment (customers, suppliers, investors, community...) will punish you if it thinks that you are unethical, choosing to be ethical still incurs an opportunity cost.  Think like this, you are Nike and you have six low cost suppliers for sneakers, just like Reebok.  If you know that the two cheapest ones employs children and choose to use neither, you are constricting your options to compete.  Not all questionable actions are found out.\n  This is why I detest linking ethics to profitability.  It's so hollow to follow the "Right path" because it makes you more money, instead of value driven behavior being done for more fundamental principles.\n\nGood luck to you on this....

Some issues to look into are \n\n"are sports figures ethically obligated to be 'role models'"?\n\n"does showboating and other egotistical behavior on the field display poor ethics?"\n\n"should a players behavior off the field influence if he is able to play?"

Its a safety issue. Ethics really do not enter into it.

First answer here is good, but I might disagree.  \n\nIs the co-worker going to be out some substantial money because of this?\n\nDoes the boss have the right under company policy to do what he is doing?\n\nThose are a couple of questions that come to mind right off the top.  You need to decide if you wish to continue to work for someone with these kinds of ethics.  If he's really doing something unethical to your co-worker, what makes you think he won't do it to you?  \n\nYou don't say, but is your business licensed by some government agency?  Is it possible that agency might just "happen" to stumble in for an inspection and be able to see what you're talking about?  Is it possible your co-worker can find out on their own in such a way that your boss wouldn't be able to assume it was coming from you?  \n\nWhat would your co-worker say or think about you if they found out you knew and did not tell them?  Is that important to you?  \n\nAny chance the client might call to speak with your co-worker about the file?  Would doing so alert your co-worker to the fact that the file had been "misplaced"?\n\nYou're in a tough spot.  Good luck with this.

Manuel Velázquez is one of the greatest of a dozen or so 'world class" classic guitar makers.\n\nIn Chapter 2, several guiding principles about ethics are discussed. The book says that an ethical act does not equal to a legal one. It mentions 4 moral standards concerning ethical dilemmas outlined by Manuel G. Velasquez as follows: 1) right: the standard concerns human's basic need and welfare, 2) justice: concerns how it can be distributed fairly among a group regarding, 3) utility: concerns the positive and negative effects it has on the public, 4) care: concerns relationship we have with other individuals.

Ethical considerations are as relative as the ethics of each society. If you practive Machiavelian politics then ethics comes last, however, in practice if you do not treat international relations ethicaly then you will burn your bridges. Hence, ethical considerations can be good connectors in international relations.
