Get-It-Done Guy's Quick and Dirty Tips

Actions taken by a business have much larger impacts in the world than actions taken by a single individual. It's important for business to be ethical to insure that a business doesn't damage society, the country, or the world through its actions. It's important to note that there are no laws requiring business to be ethical, and generally speaking, businesses are not ethical. In a study done by The Conference Board, 60% of people surveyed had recently seen someone in their company break the law. (I'll assume that anything that's illegal is also considered unethical.) That suggests unethical behavior happens pretty much as a matter of course in business. |

Business ethics are important to ensure the integrity and trustworthiness of a company. For example, right now BP is leaking millions of gallons of oil into the sea. Its business practices are being called into question because they are being investigated. Ethically, since they knew they were operating faulty equipment, they could be held financially responsible for the cleanup, not to mention being morally responsible for the deaths and possible extinction of sea creatures and wildlife. Because of this incredible disaster, confidence in the company has plummeted, the stock has fallen, and the company is scrambling to salvage its reputation.
It's the same thing with Tiger Woods, to give you a completely different example. Because of his marital infidelities, certain extremely lucractive endorsement deals went south. His golf has suffered, his reputation has suffered, and his wallet has suffered. Although he is an individual, he is also a business. Because of how he had portrayed himself in the past, his complete lack of personal ethics affected his business.
Hope that helps. |
