Ethics In The Business World
Ethics are to do with what is 'right' and 'wrong'. They play an increasingly important role in business today. A business is part of society and, just as society requires a certain standard of behaviour from individuals; it also expects businesses to abide by similar standards.
Business ethics is therefore the application of ethical values to business behaviour. It applies to all aspects of business conduct - from boardroom strategies and how companies treat their suppliers to sales techniques and accounting practices.
Ethics goes beyond the legal requirements for a company and is therefore a matter of choice. Business ethics applies to the conduct both of individuals and to the organisation as a whole. It is about how a company does its business and how its activities affect all of its stakeholders.
