PERSONAL ETHICS
Examples
1. I will always speak the truth.
This is something that you would have been taught
by your parents and teachers since the time you first
began to understand the world. By the time you
grow up, this thought would have been ingrained in
your system. Following this principle will make you
feel satisfied and happy, and in case you face a
dilemma wherein you need to compromise on your
honesty, the result might make you feel sick and
remorseful.
2. I will respect all those who are elder to me.
Following this will invariably make you a patient and
dutiful human being, yet, you might have to
compromise on it if someone is taking advantage of
your sincerity and humility.
3. I will never hurt anyone purposely.
This will help hone the way you speak and behave
with you family and friends. You will think twice
before unnecessarily hurting someone with either
your words or actions. If you do so, you will not
hesitate to apologize thereafter. Following this
principle will make you humble, which is an essential
quality that we need in our lives.
4. I will maintain a caring attitude towards
everyone.
This will evoke your compassion. It might sometimes
be difficult to care for people who have been rude to
you in the past, but if you start reacting in the same
way, just to be vengeful, what is the use of you
laying down this principle for your self? Thus, this
ethic is a stringent test of your patience. Your caring
attitude even towards your opponents will win them
over one day.
Professional Ethics
These involve a strict code of conduct laid down
at the workplace.
Your ethics here involve adherence to rules and
regulations.
Non-compliance to such rules may risk your
reputation, as your behavior will immediately be
reported as brash and unprofessional.
Your personal views and concerns about any
topic will not be of much help in a corporate setting,
how well you follow the protocol of the company is
what will matter here.
Examples
Since this is something the organization will lay out,
the principles vary from one another. Some
generalized examples can be essayed as follows:
1. Punctuality
No company will tolerate employees who aren't
punctual―as regards to arriving at work, submitting
your work, meeting deadlines, etc. You cannot enter
and leave as you wish, you need to comply to the
rules. This is one quality that can be included as a
personal ethic too, and people who follow this in
their personal lives will find it convenient to follow at
the workplace too.
2. Time Management
Do not whine if you are assigned extra work, time
management is crucial for rising up the corporate
ladder. Learn the art of managing work in less time,
and you will be a shining example for your
colleagues. Your capability will be determined by the
quality of work, not the quantity. Before calling it a
day, plan for the next day. Learn efficient time
management techniques.
3. No Gossip
This is an important rule that all must follow. Your
workplace is not a place (they too have rules against
gossiping, by the way) to gossip, especially about
your boss or colleagues or even ex-colleagues. If
you are caught doing the same, it will reflect very
badly on your personality. None of your past
goodwill will be taken into account, you will
immediately be branded as a gossip-monger or a
maverick who can't keep his/her mouth shut. Learn
to communicate appropriately and effectively, one
small mistake can take you down the drain, and if
you work in a highly regulated organization, you
might as well be cleaning out your desk.
4. Safeguard Company Privacy
Some companies even ask their prospective
employees sign a legal document preventing them
from discussing work outside the company
premises. So, preferably, maintain this policy, do not
discuss your projects or contracts (unless you are
meant to discuss them at meetings or social
gatherings) outside the office, and if you do, make
sure you have prior permission, and do not reveal
too much in any case. This rule is even more
stringent with lawyers and psychiatrists, since they
are not supposed to discuss or divulge any details
about their clients.
