Positive Work Ethic
was raised by my parents to never lose sight of my goals and to always have a positive work ethic. My parents were born in India and they moved
to Canada in hopes that their children could have a better life. They work hard everyday so that my siblings and I do not have to quit school like
they did. My greatest eye opening experience was when I started working with my mother as a general factory worker in grade ten. The working
conditions were very tough in which we stood for long hours and we had to be constantly working quickly. I met many great women and men who
were new immigrants and heard their struggles in their birth country. However, despite all of the pressure they were thankful for their job and to be
living in Canada. At the young...show more content...
Through SUJAC, I was the first year representative of the social science committee. I attended the meetings and I gave my opinion on issues and
proposals set by the Chairs of each faculty at John Abbott. I assisted in proposing a more organized math department student tutoring center as I
realized the lines were too long with only one teacher helping at one time and my proposal was a success. Through the investment club, I attended
stock simulations and represented John Abbott. My first year I volunteered at the John Molson Stock Exchange, which is a stock market simulation
which attracts hundreds of business students from across Canada and the United States. During my second year I participated and I came in a
decent position overall. I really enjoy presenting and I am always up to new challenges. I joined John Abbott's Business Administration case
competition team and I prepared for business case competitions which occurred at McGill University, John Molson School of Business and Dawson
College. I really enjoy competing in business case competitions because it enables me to analyze a company which is struggling and suggest solutions
to the problem with a clear plan of how to tackle their challenges. Furthermore, I enjoy public speaking and business case competitions allow me to
present and improve on this skill. Also, at business case competitions I am able to meet

What Is My Work Ethic
Throughout our lives, we experience numerous lessons that shape who we become, depending on how we interpret them, and what kind of morals we
will carry across life. Albeit there are endless significant meanings I have experienced in my time already, the most important by far would be forming
a hard and honest work ethic. This kind of integrity has proven to support me in my accomplishments throughout my life and will continue to do so in
the future. Circumstances leading to the formation of these principles are my drastic change in location, my increasing involvement in agricultural
work, and my explications of life lessons. To begin with, coming from an extraordinarily urban suburb in Dallas, Texas at the age of seven to an

What I have come to know however is receiving these lessons is only half of what they truly mean. Interpreting them is the other half of a lesson,
and determines whether or not the experience will be a positive one or negative. Deciphering the teachings life offers us undoubtedly assists us in
all sorts of manners such as setting goals or managing finances however, it is up to us to enact upon these things. That is why the interpretation of
life lessons is crucially important when determining a set of principles, especially when forming a work ethic. In detail, one indispensable
characteristic I have honed while working is responsibility. For example, each morning I am expected to be at the farm ready to work at a certain
time, and arriving late occasionally would reward me with my employer chastising me. I could just shrug it off and forget it, or I could learn
something from it and that is the responsibility of showing up on time. Equally, another paramount quality I have refined over the years is discipline.
The commitment it takes every day to perform all of the tasks at hand can be overwhelming at times, but will enhance your dedication to the fulfilling

Work Ethic Essay
"There is no substitute for hard work." – Thomas Edison
Hard work sets the people who only have natural intelligence and the successful people apart. I believe my work ethic distinguishes me from other
people with similar abilities. I know that it is necessary to overachieve and put in maximum effort to reach success in school, and in life. My ability to
challenge myself, my passion for science, and the way I will continue to utilize my potential separates me from my peers of the same intelligence.
Throughout my life, I have always put in the extra work so I can achieve. Whether it be helping others, or myself, I know I am diligent and driven,

While some people are just applying to the science and medical UP for a superior education, they will not enjoy it or learn anything if they do not have
a devotion to science. After my three years at Eisenhower Middle School, I have developed a strong passion for science. I find science to be my
favorite class every year, and want to continue studying it. As a result, I know I will be one of the best students in the UP program because I have a
strong curiosity towards the scientific and medical fields. As stated in the introduction, hard work sets the naturally smart people and the successful
people apart. Throughout high school, I will add on to my achievements from middle school instead of submitting to the pressure. Since I will
continue to harness my abilities all the way through high school, I am one of the best qualified students for the UP program. My intelligence will not
succumb to challenges; instead, it will stay as the cause of my successes. Moreover, I will not become apathetic, or the type of student that people find
intolerable. I will rise above any standards and continue to be the best I can be.
Altogether, the qualities I possess make me the best person for the UP program. My work ethic, my enthusiasm for science, and my ability to adapt to
change, while retaining my intelligence, divides me from my peers. Ultimately, my attributes outshine similar students, making me the best candidate

Work Ethic History
American work ethics have drastically changed throughout history. Work ethic is the belief in work as a moral good. Work ethic has improved over
the years from people rallying against work conditions and treatment in corporations. Also, demanding the funding of schools back in the Great
Depression era has shown the improvement of work ethic. Over the years as people continue educating themselves they became more aware of their
work environment. They are taking on the responsibility to improve their education and take it upon them to set goals, develop grit, and to motivate
themselves to provide good work ethic and succeed in the work place. General Motors strikes against the work conditions in their company's shows
that people are motivating themselves to better their working conditions and their situation where they work. For instance, the strike was a national
recognized place and went on strike because the wanted equality and to be respected within the place they are working. The National recognition
caused many shutdowns in major factories because they demand more equality and increased the Union memberships. Head of companies were forced
to rewrite their workers agreements to offer more equality, no discrimination, and provide better employee rights. Both of these companies are proof

The Importance of Ethics in the Workplace Essay
The Importance of Ethics in the Workplace
In their personal and professional lives, people can and, unfortunately, sometimes do go against their moral and ethical standards. Ethical standards
are what it means to be a good person, the social rules that govern our behavior. Ethics in business is essentially the study of what constitutes the
right and wrong or the good or bad behavior in the workplace environment. A business is an organization whose objective is to provide goods or
services for profit. The organization has a group of people that work together to achieve a common purpose. The moral challenges that these men and
women face each day along with a whole range of problems that could occur, are why ethics plays such an important...show more content...
Per a quote from Lieutenant Gov. Mary Fallin in Oklahoma: It's hard at times to find people that will take the high road, and that's why we see so
many of the scandals we've seen, like WorldCom and Enron, said
Fallin. It's not what happens to you that determines where you are in life, but its how you respond to what happens to you. (Smith, 2005, 7)
What a valuable employee, Sue definitely took the high road and handled that dilemma with integrity. Each person has many reasons for being ethical.
Some reasons can be: inner beliefs, habits, virtue because it is its own reward, personal advantages, it's good business, there is approval, being an
ethical person can lead to self–esteem, the admiration of loved ones and the respect of peers. There is also religion because it is believed that good
behavior can please or help serve a deity. Ethical actions can fit in with upbringing or training. Ethics starts with the individual employee choosing the
right or wrong decision.
The second ethical dilemma that our group provided was one that dealt with sexual harassment. Sexual harassment encompasses a wide range of

Work Ethic Theory
Ideas and theories are passed down from one generation to the next; whether it be genetic or from teachings that the elders have instilled in the youth.
My family instilled a strong work ethic from the time I was born. The work ethic they have placed in my mind has influence how I approach sports,
from playing to now coaching, and even my major.Baseball was my first love. There was nothing I loved more than going to my brother's Ohio State
baseball games when I was younger. The sights, the sounds, there was nothing better. This is where I first made the decision that I, too wanted to play
baseball. My father who worked countless hours at his office, would come home tired; but never too tired to throw me some extra batting practice.

Luckily, I have an amazing mentor and a business model to follow. My grandfather Jerry McClain, dropped out ofhigh school when he was only a
freshman; back in the 1940s, this was customary. Self–taught in business, my grandfather built a construction company from the ground into a
multi–million–dollar family business. My Grandfather's inability to settle, when he knew that he could become successful, has made me passionate
about my career. Being an architectural engineering major, it will pay dividends having someone in my family who I can go to for advice in the
construction field. When I was planning on attending Baldwin Wallace University last summer, I was planning on majoring in Sports Management.

Work Ethics Reflection
Looking back in my life, I was nowhere perfect in anything. This goes the same for everyone as it takes an active effort to accomplish anything one
desires in this reality. However, this is where my story deviates from the normal linear progression as my story involves strenuous tasks that managed
to define my work ethics and my writing capabilities. At the same time, exposing my impotency to deal with literacy. Going on this long journey called
life, I was able to explore myself and the things I wanted to improve upon. Sitting at the dining room table, I wrote for what seemed like hours under
the glow of a fluorescent ceiling fan. I desperately yearned for the end of this never–ending torture to end. Unfortunately for me, the fact that I was
only nine years and that my cousin tutor was over 5 years older than me did not help win my case. My case would not reach a conclusion until well
into the night usually around the time of 7 or 8 PM. During which I would be doing a bunch of exercises involving reading and writing based mostly
on books including Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Holes, and Among the Hidden. Through the work on discussions, readings, and writings on
these books, it was here that I hone my skills to have persistency in my work ethics. Along with becoming more time consciousness when I am doing

Social Work Code Of Ethics Essay
The social work code of ethics is a document put in place to govern how social workers work with their clients. Like all other professions this code
was established with the intention to instill morals and principles in workers conduct. That being said a code of ethics in place does not mean that
workers will always act in its best interest (Martin, Vaught, & Soloman, 2010, p. 62). Therefore, the codes principles must be respected and
understood by the worker before it can materialized in their behavior. It is not just simple enough to follow this code as if they were rules. Instead, the

3). Furthermore, it also means caring for the needs and empowerment of people who may be able to speak for themselves for reasons such as:
poverty, health conditions, disability, and oppression (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 3). Living ethically comes with it a desire to treat all clients and
people from various backgrounds with respect and to not stand for discrimination (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 3). Living ethically and by the social
work code also means valuing dignity and worth of persons, putting service to humanity before personal goals, being honest in ones dealings,
using confidentiality appropriately, and competency in practice (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 4, 5. 6, & 7). For a worker it is clear that simply
following the code would not provide the amount of support clients needed, but instead it needs to be a part of who they are. The reason for this is
that the code leaves a lot of the decision making up to the workers discretion. Therefore, the code assumes that the worker will make decisions in a
way that reflects the codes interest, as well as their chosen organization. The only way this can be done is if the code is not just a document, but a way of

Title: A New Work Ethic Dr. Jason Carthen Business Ethic 309 January 29, 2011 A New Work Ethic Business ethic is the study of what constitute right
and wrong. Or good and bad, human conduct in a business context. Moral standards are different because they concern behavior that is of serious
consequence to human welfare that can profoundly injure or benefit people. The conventional norms against lying, stealing, stealing, and killing deal
with action that can hurt people. Morality serves to restrain our purely self–interested desires so we can all live together. People who are exclusively
concerned with their own interests tend to have less happy and less satisfying lives than those whose desires extend beyond themselves (Shaw...show

By giving a higher priority to issues of health and safety and to job security generally workers owned enterprises also reduced the degree of worry
and anxiety for workers and their families that ordinarily accompany most of the jobs in our society (Ollan 2004). Sheehy's coworkers rejected the
very idea of hard work and long hours, taking shortcuts and not being productive. It is more reasonable in a Capitalist society to be more devoted
to our jobs; it is the way that we make our living. To be productive on our jobs means going what we have to with pride. First you put safety first,
then quality, and quantity and to go above our duties be polite. You can't go on a job doing what you want to, be considered of others. In this day
and time you will be terminated for poor job performances. 4. Explain the reasoning behind employee theft. Rarely do most employees steal from
their employer because of their need. Thefts usually occur because an opportunity to do so has presented itself. It stands to reason that an employee
will only steal from their employer if the chances of getting caught are low. There are many reasons why employees steal: * Low morale at the work
place. This is also a major reason why businesses suffer from low production. * The employee feels that the business or company has wronged or
mistreated them in some way. * The employee feels that they are minimal. The company has

According to Osibanjo and Akinbode and Falola and Oludayo (2015), strong work ethics fosters excellent outcomes in work performance. This paper
evaluates how strong work ethics (SWE) or weak work ethics (WWE) contributes to encouraging or discouraging an employee's job performance.
Based on existing research, a conceptual model is developed suggesting that work ethics is influenced by variables such as integrity, quality,
self–discipline, sense of responsibility and teamwork to determine ethics which has a bearing on the employee. Integrity is critical and has a direct
impact on employee job performance and so is self–disciplined because then the employee is focused on individual or team goals and possess a
high–level of commitment to the organization's goals. On the other hand, unethical behavior cannot be ignored, instead it should be discouraged and
this is possible by the ways of leadership. Their daily conduct must portray a high ethical conduct. Ethical policies, procedures and practices must be
implemented. The more openness there is in the workplace, the quicker unethical conduct can be dealt with. In conclusion, the need for strong work
ethics in an organization is to keep the employees' performance genuine, help them adapt to fluctuating conditions, prevent errors, cope with any
complexity and minimize costs.
This study reviews different management techniques followed by great managers. A great manager needs to be able to implement a broad range of
techniques to effectively manage problems, people and various situations. A great manager must stop and think before implementing an action thereby
ensuring the correct action is taken. The employer–employee relationship is crucial for the success of each of them as well as the organization. Troy
and Justin and Jitendra and Bharat (2017) discuss theories and examples of great managers like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Ian Bessel, Joe Hill, Marcus

Ethics are about making choices that may not always feel good or seem like they benefit you, but are the "right" choices to make. They are the
choices that are examples of "model citizens" and examples of the golden rules. We've all heard the golden rules: Don't hurt, don't steal, don't lie, or

A Strong Work Ethic
He was just an average guy. Nothing special to most people, I guess. But to me, my dad exemplified the epitome of a hard–working, loyal employee.
He hardly ever called in sick; and if he did, he was really sick. He never dreamed of arriving late, clocking out early, or shirking his duties. He was glad
to have a job that provided for his family and spoke proudly of his job with General Motors.
I can still recall him going off to work in his freshly–laundered, navy blue uniform. Mom would pack Dad a nutritious lunch and carefully slip it inside

When his father died, my dad was only 13 years old. He died suddenly while working on a scaffold on a building near some railroad tracks. He was
killed instantly from a fall. This situation forced my dad into quitting school in the eighth grade so he could help support his mother. Even until the day
she died, my dad was faithful in his support to my grandmother, both financially and emotionally.
I remember how pleased Dad was when he got hired on with General Motors. You see, back then it was quite an accomplishment among blue collar
workers to land a job with the big auto maker. Dad would often sit around with friends and family talking shop. He was quite proud of the company he
worked for and the benefits they provided to our family.
Dad never dreamed of owning a foreign car. That would be disloyal to the company that provided his bread and butter. He would come home fuming
sometimes if he found out that one of his co–workers bought anything but a General Motors car. "What kind of advertisement is that when employees
of General Motors go out and buy a foreign car?" he would ask. "How can they live with themselves?"
You don't see much of this loyalty or dedication now a days with all the down–sizing and job hopping going on. It seems as though many of us spend a

Positive Work Ethic

  • 1. Positive Work Ethic was raised by my parents to never lose sight of my goals and to always have a positive work ethic. My parents were born in India and they moved to Canada in hopes that their children could have a better life. They work hard everyday so that my siblings and I do not have to quit school like they did. My greatest eye opening experience was when I started working with my mother as a general factory worker in grade ten. The working conditions were very tough in which we stood for long hours and we had to be constantly working quickly. I met many great women and men who were new immigrants and heard their struggles in their birth country. However, despite all of the pressure they were thankful for their job and to be living in Canada. At the young...show more content... Through SUJAC, I was the first year representative of the social science committee. I attended the meetings and I gave my opinion on issues and proposals set by the Chairs of each faculty at John Abbott. I assisted in proposing a more organized math department student tutoring center as I realized the lines were too long with only one teacher helping at one time and my proposal was a success. Through the investment club, I attended stock simulations and represented John Abbott. My first year I volunteered at the John Molson Stock Exchange, which is a stock market simulation which attracts hundreds of business students from across Canada and the United States. During my second year I participated and I came in a decent position overall. I really enjoy presenting and I am always up to new challenges. I joined John Abbott's Business Administration case competition team and I prepared for business case competitions which occurred at McGill University, John Molson School of Business and Dawson College. I really enjoy competing in business case competitions because it enables me to analyze a company which is struggling and suggest solutions to the problem with a clear plan of how to tackle their challenges. Furthermore, I enjoy public speaking and business case competitions allow me to present and improve on this skill. Also, at business case competitions I am able to meet Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. What Is My Work Ethic Throughout our lives, we experience numerous lessons that shape who we become, depending on how we interpret them, and what kind of morals we will carry across life. Albeit there are endless significant meanings I have experienced in my time already, the most important by far would be forming a hard and honest work ethic. This kind of integrity has proven to support me in my accomplishments throughout my life and will continue to do so in the future. Circumstances leading to the formation of these principles are my drastic change in location, my increasing involvement in agricultural work, and my explications of life lessons. To begin with, coming from an extraordinarily urban suburb in Dallas, Texas at the age of seven to an exceptionally...show more content... What I have come to know however is receiving these lessons is only half of what they truly mean. Interpreting them is the other half of a lesson, and determines whether or not the experience will be a positive one or negative. Deciphering the teachings life offers us undoubtedly assists us in all sorts of manners such as setting goals or managing finances however, it is up to us to enact upon these things. That is why the interpretation of life lessons is crucially important when determining a set of principles, especially when forming a work ethic. In detail, one indispensable characteristic I have honed while working is responsibility. For example, each morning I am expected to be at the farm ready to work at a certain time, and arriving late occasionally would reward me with my employer chastising me. I could just shrug it off and forget it, or I could learn something from it and that is the responsibility of showing up on time. Equally, another paramount quality I have refined over the years is discipline. The commitment it takes every day to perform all of the tasks at hand can be overwhelming at times, but will enhance your dedication to the fulfilling the job. To emphasize, while building a fence for cattle, even if it's below thirty degrees outside with the wind–chill, I can't just abandon the job and quit. I have to stay focused and gradually accomplish the task given to Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Work Ethic Essay "There is no substitute for hard work." – Thomas Edison Hard work sets the people who only have natural intelligence and the successful people apart. I believe my work ethic distinguishes me from other people with similar abilities. I know that it is necessary to overachieve and put in maximum effort to reach success in school, and in life. My ability to challenge myself, my passion for science, and the way I will continue to utilize my potential separates me from my peers of the same intelligence. Throughout my life, I have always put in the extra work so I can achieve. Whether it be helping others, or myself, I know I am diligent and driven, striving for success instead of just hoping for the best. I know that challenging myself may seem...show more content... While some people are just applying to the science and medical UP for a superior education, they will not enjoy it or learn anything if they do not have a devotion to science. After my three years at Eisenhower Middle School, I have developed a strong passion for science. I find science to be my favorite class every year, and want to continue studying it. As a result, I know I will be one of the best students in the UP program because I have a strong curiosity towards the scientific and medical fields. As stated in the introduction, hard work sets the naturally smart people and the successful people apart. Throughout high school, I will add on to my achievements from middle school instead of submitting to the pressure. Since I will continue to harness my abilities all the way through high school, I am one of the best qualified students for the UP program. My intelligence will not succumb to challenges; instead, it will stay as the cause of my successes. Moreover, I will not become apathetic, or the type of student that people find intolerable. I will rise above any standards and continue to be the best I can be. Altogether, the qualities I possess make me the best person for the UP program. My work ethic, my enthusiasm for science, and my ability to adapt to change, while retaining my intelligence, divides me from my peers. Ultimately, my attributes outshine similar students, making me the best candidate Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Work Ethic History American work ethics have drastically changed throughout history. Work ethic is the belief in work as a moral good. Work ethic has improved over the years from people rallying against work conditions and treatment in corporations. Also, demanding the funding of schools back in the Great Depression era has shown the improvement of work ethic. Over the years as people continue educating themselves they became more aware of their work environment. They are taking on the responsibility to improve their education and take it upon them to set goals, develop grit, and to motivate themselves to provide good work ethic and succeed in the work place. General Motors strikes against the work conditions in their company's shows that people are motivating themselves to better their working conditions and their situation where they work. For instance, the strike was a national recognized place and went on strike because the wanted equality and to be respected within the place they are working. The National recognition caused many shutdowns in major factories because they demand more equality and increased the Union memberships. Head of companies were forced to rewrite their workers agreements to offer more equality, no discrimination, and provide better employee rights. Both of these companies are proof that work ethic has improved in...show more content... The migration from the south to the north tested the quality of the children's education. Teachers rallied the government to demand federal aid to educate the children. During the Great Depression Union memberships for teachers rose significantly because of fear that they would lose their jobs. As the decade began to end the NEA managed to help institute finance reforms to equalize the schools across the nation. The teachers showed work ethic because they were motivated to help the children. Also, they united against the government to make sure the children receive an Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. The Importance of Ethics in the Workplace Essay The Importance of Ethics in the Workplace In their personal and professional lives, people can and, unfortunately, sometimes do go against their moral and ethical standards. Ethical standards are what it means to be a good person, the social rules that govern our behavior. Ethics in business is essentially the study of what constitutes the right and wrong or the good or bad behavior in the workplace environment. A business is an organization whose objective is to provide goods or services for profit. The organization has a group of people that work together to achieve a common purpose. The moral challenges that these men and women face each day along with a whole range of problems that could occur, are why ethics plays such an important...show more content... Per a quote from Lieutenant Gov. Mary Fallin in Oklahoma: It's hard at times to find people that will take the high road, and that's why we see so many of the scandals we've seen, like WorldCom and Enron, said Fallin. It's not what happens to you that determines where you are in life, but its how you respond to what happens to you. (Smith, 2005, 7) What a valuable employee, Sue definitely took the high road and handled that dilemma with integrity. Each person has many reasons for being ethical. Some reasons can be: inner beliefs, habits, virtue because it is its own reward, personal advantages, it's good business, there is approval, being an ethical person can lead to self–esteem, the admiration of loved ones and the respect of peers. There is also religion because it is believed that good behavior can please or help serve a deity. Ethical actions can fit in with upbringing or training. Ethics starts with the individual employee choosing the right or wrong decision. The second ethical dilemma that our group provided was one that dealt with sexual harassment. Sexual harassment encompasses a wide range of unwelcome sexual conduct. Per Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 this is the first paragraph on the EEOC web page about sexual harassment: Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Work Ethic Theory Ideas and theories are passed down from one generation to the next; whether it be genetic or from teachings that the elders have instilled in the youth. My family instilled a strong work ethic from the time I was born. The work ethic they have placed in my mind has influence how I approach sports, from playing to now coaching, and even my major.Baseball was my first love. There was nothing I loved more than going to my brother's Ohio State baseball games when I was younger. The sights, the sounds, there was nothing better. This is where I first made the decision that I, too wanted to play baseball. My father who worked countless hours at his office, would come home tired; but never too tired to throw me some extra batting practice. Seeing...show more content... Luckily, I have an amazing mentor and a business model to follow. My grandfather Jerry McClain, dropped out ofhigh school when he was only a freshman; back in the 1940s, this was customary. Self–taught in business, my grandfather built a construction company from the ground into a multi–million–dollar family business. My Grandfather's inability to settle, when he knew that he could become successful, has made me passionate about my career. Being an architectural engineering major, it will pay dividends having someone in my family who I can go to for advice in the construction field. When I was planning on attending Baldwin Wallace University last summer, I was planning on majoring in Sports Management. A career field where I knew I could do enough just to get by; not really wanting to enter the field for a career. I quickly snapped myself back to reality and saw that I could succeed in Architecture. Online Architecture programs such as: Google Sketch up, CAD, and Revit, are very difficult to use and to master. I had to sit down for hours just to figure out the basics of each program. Though it was extremely frustrating at times, I knew that learning these programs before taking classes with them would benefit me Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Work Ethics Reflection Looking back in my life, I was nowhere perfect in anything. This goes the same for everyone as it takes an active effort to accomplish anything one desires in this reality. However, this is where my story deviates from the normal linear progression as my story involves strenuous tasks that managed to define my work ethics and my writing capabilities. At the same time, exposing my impotency to deal with literacy. Going on this long journey called life, I was able to explore myself and the things I wanted to improve upon. Sitting at the dining room table, I wrote for what seemed like hours under the glow of a fluorescent ceiling fan. I desperately yearned for the end of this never–ending torture to end. Unfortunately for me, the fact that I was only nine years and that my cousin tutor was over 5 years older than me did not help win my case. My case would not reach a conclusion until well into the night usually around the time of 7 or 8 PM. During which I would be doing a bunch of exercises involving reading and writing based mostly on books including Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Holes, and Among the Hidden. Through the work on discussions, readings, and writings on these books, it was here that I hone my skills to have persistency in my work ethics. Along with becoming more time consciousness when I am doing my work because during that time I learned to value the value of every second of a short two–minute break. Also, the privilege of being done early is a Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Social Work Code Of Ethics Essay The social work code of ethics is a document put in place to govern how social workers work with their clients. Like all other professions this code was established with the intention to instill morals and principles in workers conduct. That being said a code of ethics in place does not mean that workers will always act in its best interest (Martin, Vaught, & Soloman, 2010, p. 62). Therefore, the codes principles must be respected and understood by the worker before it can materialized in their behavior. It is not just simple enough to follow this code as if they were rules. Instead, the code of ethics for social workers and aspiring social workers is a way of life. Being a social worker or aspiring to be one can only be done when the worker...show more content... 3). Furthermore, it also means caring for the needs and empowerment of people who may be able to speak for themselves for reasons such as: poverty, health conditions, disability, and oppression (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 3). Living ethically comes with it a desire to treat all clients and people from various backgrounds with respect and to not stand for discrimination (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 3). Living ethically and by the social work code also means valuing dignity and worth of persons, putting service to humanity before personal goals, being honest in ones dealings, using confidentiality appropriately, and competency in practice (Code of Ethics, 2005, p. 4, 5. 6, & 7). For a worker it is clear that simply following the code would not provide the amount of support clients needed, but instead it needs to be a part of who they are. The reason for this is that the code leaves a lot of the decision making up to the workers discretion. Therefore, the code assumes that the worker will make decisions in a way that reflects the codes interest, as well as their chosen organization. The only way this can be done is if the code is not just a document, but a way of Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 10. Essay On Work Ethic I only wish I could have seen the same quality of students' work ethic within my second job. Excited to get back into the work force, I took a cashier job at Firehouse Subs. Where I worked for a short period of time. This was another job that employed students'. I began to notice the change in the students' work ethic within the first several days of my employment. I witnessed several times employees calling in to work and then several times the employees did not bother to show up.When a customer made a complaint about their order being made incorrectly. The student employees would behave in such a preposterous manner. The blame game would happen, mostly the customer was accused of making the mistake. When this did not work the blame came to me simply because I was the new employee, and not fully trained yet. Most of the time I worked with these student employees I felt very disquieted. Several times I did not leave work on time at night, simply because some of the student employees averse behavior towards their job duties. I observed on a daily basis the student employees would go outside together to smoke. When the employees did this it left me perplexed about their behavior. Employee down!

I have spoken with many students in many different businesses that have outstanding work ethics. Technology is not the only factor that has impacted students' work ethics. It only takes a few students with poor work ethics to tarnish the good reputation of the students with great work ethics in the eyes of society.

My love for the sport of hockey attracted me to a used gear sale, where I would be able to get some of the Nashville Predators players' equipment.

  • 12. Work Ethics Title: A New Work Ethic Dr. Jason Carthen Business Ethic 309 January 29, 2011 A New Work Ethic Business ethic is the study of what constitute right and wrong. Or good and bad, human conduct in a business context. Moral standards are different because they concern behavior that is of serious consequence to human welfare that can profoundly injure or benefit people. The conventional norms against lying, stealing, stealing, and killing deal with action that can hurt people. Morality serves to restrain our purely self–interested desires so we can all live together. People who are exclusively concerned with their own interests tend to have less happy and less satisfying lives than those whose desires extend beyond themselves (Shaw...show more content... By giving a higher priority to issues of health and safety and to job security generally workers owned enterprises also reduced the degree of worry and anxiety for workers and their families that ordinarily accompany most of the jobs in our society (Ollan 2004). Sheehy's coworkers rejected the very idea of hard work and long hours, taking shortcuts and not being productive. It is more reasonable in a Capitalist society to be more devoted to our jobs; it is the way that we make our living. To be productive on our jobs means going what we have to with pride. First you put safety first, then quality, and quantity and to go above our duties be polite. You can't go on a job doing what you want to, be considered of others. In this day and time you will be terminated for poor job performances. 4. Explain the reasoning behind employee theft. Rarely do most employees steal from their employer because of their need. Thefts usually occur because an opportunity to do so has presented itself. It stands to reason that an employee will only steal from their employer if the chances of getting caught are low. There are many reasons why employees steal: * Low morale at the work place. This is also a major reason why businesses suffer from low production. * The employee feels that the business or company has wronged or mistreated them in some way. * The employee feels that they are minimal.

  • 13. According to Osibanjo and Akinbode and Falola and Oludayo (2015), strong work ethics fosters excellent outcomes in work performance. This paper evaluates how strong work ethics (SWE) or weak work ethics (WWE) contributes to encouraging or discouraging an employee's job performance. Based on existing research, a conceptual model is developed suggesting that work ethics is influenced by variables such as integrity, quality, self–discipline, sense of responsibility and teamwork to determine ethics which has a bearing on the employee. Integrity is critical and has a direct impact on employee job performance and so is self–disciplined because then the employee is focused on individual or team goals and possess a high–level of commitment to the organization's goals. On the other hand, unethical behavior cannot be ignored, instead it should be discouraged and this is possible by the ways of leadership. Their daily conduct must portray a high ethical conduct. Ethical policies, procedures and practices must be implemented. The more openness there is in the workplace, the quicker unethical conduct can be dealt with. In conclusion, the need for strong work ethics in an organization is to keep the employees' performance genuine, help them adapt to fluctuating conditions, prevent errors, cope with any complexity and minimize costs. This study reviews different management techniques followed by great managers. A great manager needs to be able to implement a broad range of techniques to effectively manage problems, people and various situations. A great manager must stop and think before implementing an action thereby ensuring the correct action is taken. The employer–employee relationship is crucial for the success of each of them as well as the organization. Troy and Justin and Jitendra and Bharat (2017) discuss theories and examples of great managers like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Ian Bessel, Joe Hill, Marcus Buckingham and others. The common factor amongst them is that they share very similar strong management qualities and most importantly committed to the long–term success of their respective organizations.

He hardly ever called in sick; and if he did, he was really sick. He never dreamed of arriving late, clocking out early, or shirking his duties. He was glad to have a job that provided for his family and spoke proudly of his job with General Motors. I can still recall him going off to work in his freshly–laundered, navy blue uniform. Mom would pack Dad a nutritious lunch and carefully slip it inside his gray, metal lunch box. Then he'd kiss her good–bye and strut proudly out the door. Dad worked all kinds of crazy schedules.

He was killed instantly from a fall. This situation forced my dad into quitting school in the eighth grade so he could help support his mother. Even until the day she died, my dad was faithful in his support to my grandmother, both financially and emotionally. I remember how pleased Dad was when he got hired on with General Motors. You see, back then it was quite an accomplishment among blue collar workers to land a job with the big auto maker. Dad would often sit around with friends and family talking shop. He was quite proud of the company he worked for and the benefits they provided to our family. Dad never dreamed of owning a foreign car. That would be disloyal to the company that provided his bread and butter. He would come home fuming sometimes if he found out that one of his co–workers bought anything but a General Motors car. "What kind of advertisement is that when employees of General Motors go out and buy a foreign car?" he would ask. "How can they live with themselves?" You don't see much of this loyalty or dedication now a days with all the down–sizing and job hopping going on.
