Businesses can gain a good or bad reputation, it all depends on their level of capitalism (how much the business is interested in making money, at all costs), and how they conduct themselves to make money brings up ethical behavior. Most people say that businesses should be held responsible for their own ethics as well as ones tied in relationship with other businesses. As a result, major big companies have been fined millions for breaking ethical business laws, money is usually the main factor to whether a company has done wrong.

Hi

Ethics are a set of moral principles which are recognized in respect to a particular class of human actions or a particular group, for instance the medical ethics, legal ethics, teaching ethics that brings together people of the same profession.

These principles deal with values relating to human conduct with respect to concepts such as being good or bad, noble or ignoble, right or wrong etc. These values guide members of a group to act in a manner that is consistent with the values and standards as established. Business ethics are those virtues that business people apply when making business decisions. They are the standards expected within the business world, even if they are not written down and which business people ought to adopt. For instance business people are expected to afflict least suffering to their customers, being fair in their dealings and nurturing an enduring virtuous corporate character in totality.

Thanks
