A Productive Workplace
People work best in a setting marked by mutual respect, personal dignity and support which utilizes one's skills and abilities.
All members of the staff, therefore, may reasonably expect to pursue their work in a safe and civil environment, free from discrimination, harassment, threatening or violent conduct, or offenses against property.

Representing Your Company
• Professionalism is both an individual characteristic and an ideological position. The primary definition is that of individual professionalism: the idea that membership of a profession carries with it a set of internalized values that will be reflected in the way in which work is carried out and the ethical standards that are adhered to.

![Page 24: Workplace Code of Conduct](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062218/56816141550346895dd0b2f1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Business Ethics
• In the most basic terms, business ethics boil down to knowing the difference between right and wrong and choosing to do what is right.
• Business ethics, like general ethical standards, concerns, primarily, conduct. Whether one ought or ought not to perform an action.
![Page 25: Workplace Code of Conduct](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062218/56816141550346895dd0b2f1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Business Ethics
• Business Ethics reach beyond whether you have the right to do something or even whether your actions will impinge upon another’s freedoms or sensibilities. Business ethics must take into account perceptions, how your actions will reflect on your company and legality, how your actions adhere to the letter of the law.
![Page 26: Workplace Code of Conduct](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062218/56816141550346895dd0b2f1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Business Ethics
• Finally, Business Ethics must take into account numerous audiences. Your boss, your company leadership, your client, your coworkers, and even vendors and partners are stakeholders in your corporate integrity.
• It is important, therefore, to ensure the highest standards of professionalism and honesty are adhered to.
