Business ethics refers to ethical principles and standards that guide conduct in business organizations. It involves determining what is right and wrong in the workplace. Business ethics applies to a company's relationships and interactions with employees, customers, suppliers, and society. Unethical behavior in business can harm stakeholders and result in higher prices, business failure, and fewer jobs. Examples of unethical conduct include stealing, dishonesty, unsafe practices, and poor treatment of customers or employees. Employers address unethical behavior through security measures, loyalty programs, and fair treatment of workers. Individuals have a choice to ignore, rationalize, report, or clarify issues of unethical conduct in the workplace.

Workplace Ethics: How to Tackle the Small Lapses and Avoid a Company CrisisCase IQ
Just because your company has policies, a code of ethics, a code of conduct, a values statement and a culture document doesn’t mean you are immune to ethical lapses, and the consequences. Companies with all the right documentation in place suffer ethics slipups every day, including fraud, sexual harassment, insider trading, conflicts of interest, bullying and other misconduct.
Lapses don’t even have to be outright misconduct to affect the workplace. Many are small incidents that go uncorrected, such as incivility, bogus sick days, gossiping, minor theft or questionable jokes. And whether they involve employees, managers or the C-suite, these small lapses, left unchecked, can build into bigger ones.
Join Janette Levey Frisch, “The EmpLAWyerologist”, as she examines ways to tackle the small ethics lapses in your company, get employees, managers and the C-suite to think and act ethically, and avoid a potential catastrophe.
