Why can it be difficult to deal with unethical behavior in the workplace?
Dealing with unethical behavior in the workplace requires the courage to act, which can be difficult if the unethical behavior comes from someone who has control over your job. It can also be difficult to determine the difference between illegal and unethical behavior, since unethical behavior is not always illegal. If something is unethical but legal, and is allowed to exist inside a company, it might not be possible to deal with the behavior except by leaving.
Explain what is meant by the phrase “ethical behavior”.
Something is ethical if it does not cause harm and society considers it to be good. Ethical behavior is generally any action that furthers a good outcome for someone else without causing intentional harm to anyone.
