Moral standards refer to principles of right and wrong that guide human behavior and help make ethical decisions. They are influenced by cultural and religious beliefs and typically focus on values like honesty, fairness, respect and compassion. Non-moral standards are rules that are unrelated to ethics and morality, instead focusing on functionality, efficiency or conformity. Examples include fashion trends, personal grooming habits, tastes in music, social etiquette rules and language usage conventions, which can vary widely between individuals and cultures.

2. WHAT ARE
ETHICAL
STANDARDS?
7/1/20XX Pitch deck title 2
An ethical standard is the
commonly accepted behavior
performed in any given
circumstance. If a decision is
to be made between two paths
to take, the ethical standard is
the choice of the majority of
people. This does not
necessarily mean this is the
correct path to take.

3. MORALITY:
Morality may refer to the standards that a person or
a group has about what is right and wrong, or good
and evil. Accordingly, moral standards are those
concerned with or relating to human behavior,
especially the distinction between good and bad (or
right and wrong) behavior. Morality is an innate
sense, instinctively practiced, of what is in the best
interests of individuals, nations, and the planet. It
seeks to preserve, and perpetuate, freedom,
happiness, and innocent life.

4. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MORAL STANDARDS
AND NON-MORAL STANDARDS

Moral standards are norms
that individuals or groups
have about the kinds of
actions believed to be
morally right or wrong, as
well as the values placed on
what we believed to be
morally good or morally bad.
MORAL STANDARDS
Non-moral standards refer to
standards by which we judge
what is good or bad and
right or wrong in a non-moral
way.
