Test Ethics and the Environment
Ethics and
the environment
Businesses can choose to work in a way
that profits only the owners or in ways that benefit the community. Working
ethically means acting in ways that are both fair and honest. Ethical
businesses try to keep the impact of their operations on the environment to a
minimum.
What is ethical behaviour?
A person who displays ethical behaviour often possesses a strong
moral standard and a consistent value system. Ethics might be motivated by
personal beliefs or the desire to improve the world. Individuals who show
ethical conduct typically do what's right, irrespective of whether they receive
recognition for it. This type of behaviour is not exclusive to the work
environment. It may encompass all aspects of life. In a business environment, a
company typically expects ethical conduct from every employee, team leader, and
manager. Observing ethics in the workplace can help employees act honestly and
fairly in their interactions with colleagues and customers.
