UNETHICAL BEHAVIOUR IN OUR SOCIETY.

Unethical behavior is when we're talking about actions that don't conform to the acceptable standards of business operations, failing to do what is right in every situation.

Cheating, misconduct, deception and other forms of unethical behavior are widespread today, not just in business but in sports, government, schools, and many other arenas.

Even the media often focuses on extreme cases of cheating and sensational scams, less attention is paid to "ordinary unethical behavior.

Instaces like not reporting income on one’s taxes, buying clothing with the intention of wearing it once and returning it, stealing from one’s employer, or cheating on an exam.

These forms of unethical behavior are often the results of ordinary people giving into the temptation to cheat when confronted with the opportunity to do so. When combined, these behaviors are extremely costly for both businesses and society.

Unethical behavior can include "stealing" time from the company, as the company is compensating employees and receiving no productivity in return.

In addition to time spent on aimless Internet surfing, time misuse can consist of extending breaks beyond the allotted time, congregating around the water cooler or engaging in lengthy gossip sessions during working time, falsifying time sheets, coming into work late or leaving early and running personal errands while traveling on company business.

Too many workplaces are filled with managers and supervisors who use their position and power to mistreat or disrespect others.

Unfortunately, unless the situation you're in involves race, gender or ethnic origin, there is often no legal protection against abusive behavior in the workplace.
