== Definitions of ethics ==
#Moral principles.
#Principles which govern the conduct of any individual or corporate member of a professional organisation.
== Characteristics of ethical issues ==
The Institute of Business Ethics (IBE) identifies the following characteristics, to help you identify whether a business issue is an ethical issue. If one or more of these characteristics is present, it is likely to be an ethical issue:
# It raises moral questions
# It is not covered by law
# It compromises your own or your organisation's values
# It is against any code of ethics or code of practice
# It involves your duties and responsibilities
# Your 'right' decision may not be the same as someone else's 'right' decision
# It provokes the responses 'should I?' or 'ought I?'
