Work ethics are a set of standards and rules that guide satisfactory work performance. They are cultural norms that influence how individuals approach their work. Key characteristics of good work ethics include creativity, respect, teamwork, time management, and integrity. Both employees and employers should adhere to work ethics for business success and well-being. A lack of work ethics can lead to an unordered work environment where workers feel miserable and depressed or a business fails. Maintaining a positive attitude, effort, and following work ethics are important for achieving success.
