Best Answer

Since the fall of the Enron corporation (known for blatant ethical violations of running the Fortune 500 company into the ground), we have heard a lot about ethical conduct.

Ethics are now being discussed more in college and even grammer school of doing the right thing and acting accordingly. More people today take ethics as a personal affair because of past presidences and the results of what happens if you do act unethical.

If you do act unethical, it is more of the judge character. Reviewing the corporate structure today, I think more people look upon it as a personal affair and it does not enter public debate until something unethical happens. =)

How do you define personal ethics and professional ethics?

In my opinion, I would define them this way: Professional Ethics - You are compliant with the company's policies, and procedures. You also do not intend to pose harm to the company, its share and stakeholders, or employees. You also respect authority and abide by the rules and regulations set forth by your Manager or Supervisor. Personal Ethics - You are compliant with the laws that govern you state or country. You are not a menace to society. You have moral, manners, and want to good for others without wanting something in return. And you are honest and do not lie not matter what the circumstances are.


How do you differentiate between personal ethics and professional ethics?

First AnswerI think there is no difference. Either a person is ethical and makes ethical choices or they are not.AnswerPersonal ethics are the code of values one holds in everyday life. Professional ethics is the suspension of these for pay (e.g., a public health nurse, opposed to contraception, promotes condom use as a condition of her job).AnswerProfessional ethics, such as honesty, responsibility, and reliability are very much the same as personal ethics; I personally don't differentiate. Where personal and professional ethics may differentiate is when ethics that arise in a professional setting that normally don't occur in a personal setting. The example of a professional nurse who is personally opposed to birth control is required to promote use of condoms is no different that an employee required to assist an employer cheating on their taxes; either you give up you personal ethics to do the job (in other words, conveniently no longer hold those ethics), or you stand by your personal ethics and must find other employment (stand by your ethics). Such professional ethical decisions won't normally be encountered in personal life because if you hold these ethical principals, the question of what you will choose doesn't occur. If your personal ethics don't transfer to your professional life, then you don't really have those ethics; ethics aren't a matter of convenience.Personal ethics held and applied in your personal life do regularly come up in your professional setting with regard to how you treat the people in the professional setting. Again, if you don't use those ethics in your professional life, then you don't really have those ethics.
