Ethics or ethical values are important in all contexts of society.
In companies, in particular, there is usually a manual of conduct, almost always drawn up by management in conjunction with the human resources sector.
Unfortunately, many organizations, even having implemented a series of ethical procedures, do not comply with them, and in the case of Brazil we are witnessing the involvement of large organizations in the worst practices of corruption.
Therefore, in my opinion, the manuals are of no use, if there is no example, from the leaders and being followed by the whole organization.
Regarding ethics in the setting of regulations, the following questions apply:
1. Who wrote the regulations?
1.1 Who wrote the ethical component of the regulations?
2. To whom do the regulations apply?
2.1 E.g., do the regulations apply to the employees alone, the management alone, both ethics and management equally, both ethics and management but lopsidedly?
2.1.1 Management may be overseen by another body of regulators who the employees never see and never interface with.
2.1.1.2 Employees may never see the conclusions reached by the regulators who oversee the management.
2.1.1.2.1 The regulators who oversee the management may rarely interface with management, unless a problem, e.g., in law or ethics, arises, and only then do the management regulators begin their work.
Ethics plays an important role in the lives of people of different races and places of existence, religions and philosophies adopted, and reflects the impact of ethics in the behavior of individuals so that their behavior is consistent with the stability and coherence and harmony, and then ethics is one of the manifestations of social control in individuals, and motivate and drive, and deepen their sense of belonging to And help them adapt to the reality of the society in which they live.
Ethics is the primary pillar of the preservation of nations and societies. It is closely related to the educational process as one of the most important principles and rules governing human behavior. Ethics is reflected in the individual's commitment to his profession. The profession is a means for the individual to achieve psychological and social harmony for the benefit of the individual and society.
The ethics of the work of an institution are based on the moral principles and values that represent the behavior of the workers. The professional ethic stems from the general morality that man learned at the beginning of his life from the family, the school, the university, the friends and the society. It is a statement of the values and principles that should guide the daily work General employee.
Each profession in the human society has ethical and professional bases for its employees. The professional ethics are composed of three dimensions, such as the cognitive dimension, the behavioral dimension, the moral dimension, and the latter is linked to the perfection of work and to the maintenance of it in a framework of commitment to a set of standards and values. Trust, mutual assistance and justice in human relations. If these rules do not exist to a certain extent, it is virtually impossible to sustain any activity. Good ethics are actions that achieve agreement between all and reflect the laws of those acts.
There is no doubt that economic factors are not unique to the impact of the reality of the organizations, but there are also human factors, social and psychological impact no less than the organization and control of labor relations, and many of the experts of society and culture that the investment of human resources properly, the top of the rest of the conditions of the success of administrative organization, Morality refers to the moral system and moral standards on which managers base their decisions, taking into account what is right or what is wrong. What we want to emphasize here is that the ethics of these managers are embodied in ethical behaviors that take into consideration the non-violation of norms and standards In the community on the one hand and the laws in force on the other.
The educational institutions seek to achieve the quality of performance by strengthening the system of work ethics, which in turn reflects on the growth of society. It can not achieve this without ethical standards regulating the course of work, enhancing trust between institutions and beneficiaries, and is a key element in the success of the relationship with the public, employees and other institutions.
Commitment to ethical principles and behavior at the level of individuals, groups, institutions and organizations is of great importance to different segments of society. This strengthens the commitment to the principles of correct and honest action.
In view of the important role played by ethical values related to professional practice in improving the performance of the worker and investing his time in an optimal manner and his quest to achieve the best return to the community in line with the stages of development and progress and consistent with the system of values held by the individual towards himself and the community, It was clear that institutions were racing to issue ethical codes of the profession. Having established competence as the sole focus of attention, ethics had become the most important concern, redefined objectives and policies, and a way of highlighting moral responsibility. The attention of the society to the issue of combating administrative corruption as well as the subject of transparency and integrity of procedures in the institutions of the state and the private sector, and records the state and institutions of different forms and environments work attempts to develop professional behavior among its employees as an appropriate entry to reduce the negative phenomena, access to build integrity in public work is the goal To build effective public institutions that are respected by employees through a system of ethical values and behavior, and enable them to immunize society against corruption and provide effective mechanisms to address its effects.
