Fairness and honesty
Businesspeople are expected to refrain from knowingly deceiving, misrepresenting, or intimidating others.
Organizational relationships
A businessperson should put the welfare of others
and that of the organization above his or her
personal welfare.
Conflict of interest
Issues arise when a businessperson takes advantage of a situation for personal gain rather than for the employer’s interest.
Communications
Business communications that are false, misleading, or deceptive are both illegal and unethical.
