ETHICS AND HR DECISIONS
1
Why is Ethics important ?
• Studying ethics can help you arrive at clearer positions and arguments on real life
issues — and can help you apply them, too.
• Some great reasons to study ethics are as follows:
• It allows you to live an authentic life
• Makes you more successful
• Cultivates inner peace
• Provides for a stable society
2
What is Ethics?
• Ethics is the study of Morality
• Ethics is a study of what are good and bad ends to pursue in life and what is right
and wrong to do in the conduct of life. It is therefore above all, a practical discipline.
Its primary aim is to determine how one ought to live and what actions one ought
to do in the conduct of one’s life. (John Deign)
• In simple words, it is the analysis and employment of concepts such as right &
wrong; and acting with responsibility.
• Aristotle first used the term "ethics" to name a field of study developed by his
predecessors Socrates and Plato.

5
Ethical Dilemma
• An ethical dilemma is a situation in which a person has to choose between two
options, both of which are morally correct but in conflict
• In a perfect world, it’s always clear about what’s right and wrong. In the real world,
things are often not so clear.
• Someone’s wrong can be your right, which means your right will definitely, at some
point, be someone else’s wrong
6
Recognising Ethical Issues
• Even small ethical lapses can lead to grave problems for the organization in future.
• It is necessary that even small unethical issues are addressed.
• An employee; at any level must be able to identify events that could possibly lead
to an ethical issue.

• Ambiguity
• Motivated Blindness
• Conflict of Interest

• HR professional should interact, listen to the employees & address their problems.
• During crisis HR should reassure employees of job security; this will make them loyal.
• HR department should ensure that employees are not given any special treatment
