Ethics

In one of my classes, we’ve been talking about business ethics. I presented the following self-check questions that someone can ask themselves. Here is the list of these questions:

• Is it against the law?
• Is it against the commandments or the teachings in the scriptures?
• Would my wife approve? (Note, I don’t have a wife, but this would be one of those questions to ask yourself if you did)

So, supposing in business, there was an opportunity to do something questionably non-ethical. One can begin to answer resolve if the opportunity is or isn’t ethical by answering the three questions above.
