1) Basic concepts of business ethics
Ethics – are standards of conduct, which originate from some external group or source such as
society, in general, or business, in particular.


Morals – standards of conduct that originate within the individual. Morality, in this view, is often
viewed as one’s personal compass regard-ing right or wrong


Business Ethics
• Is concerned with rightness, wrongness, fairness or justice of actions, decisions, policies, and
practices that take place within a business context or in the workplace.
• Is the study of practices in organizations and is a quest to determine whether these practices are
acceptable or not.
Descriptive Ethics
• Involves describing, characterizing, and studying morality.
• Focuses on what is occurring.




Chapter 5 - business ethics essentials 3

, Descriptive ethics is concerned with describing, charac-terizing, and studying the
morality of people, an organiza-tion, a culture, or a society. It also compares and
contrasts different moral codes, systems, practices, beliefs, and val-ues.
In descriptive business ethics, the focus is on learning
what is occurring in the realm of behavior, actions, deci-sions, policies, and practices
of business firms, managers, or, perhaps, specific industries.
Public opinion polls frequently give us glimpses into descriptive ethics—what people
believe is going on as the basis of their perceptions and understandings.

Descriptive ethics focuses on “what is”—the prevailing set of ethical standards and
practices in the business commu-nity, specific organizations, or on the part of specific
man-agers.

The major danger in using descriptive ethics is that some people may adopt the view
that “if everyone is doing it,” it must be acceptable. Just because many employees are
participating in this questionable activity does not make it an acceptable practice.
This is why normative ethics is important.




Normative Ethics
• Focuses on what ought or should be occurring.
• Demands a more meaningful moral anchor than just “everyone is doing it.” Normative Ethics is
our primary concern in this text.
