Do they? If you arent sure maybe you should read this blog: To Whom Does an Ethical Business Owe a Responsibility?
LMAO...you sound like me.Do they? Of course not, companies are free to do whatever the **** they feel like, as long as they don’t get caught.
Should they? Of course they ought to, but that doesn’t matter because success always goes to the least scrupled bastards who are willing to **** other people over for personal gain.
I think the appropriate clichés are “Nice guys finish last,” and “No good deed goes unpunished.”
...damn, I hadn't realized how cynical I'd become until expressing myself just now. I blame the parsimonious piece of reprocessed excrement that employs me.
I think everyone has ethical responsiblities to most others, except liberals. Liberals live in a world without real responsibilities.
I got you a T-shirt.

I wonder if employees have an ethical responsibility to their employers. You know, to not call in sick and go skiing instead of working for example. For not padding their expense accounts. For not threatening to shut down the business if they don't get their way. Little things like that. An obligation to not sabotage work so they can get more hours in. An obligation to not assault workers who want to work.
I wonder if employees have an ethical responsibility to the customers. You know, to make a product that works. Or, to show up in the classroom and teach instead of parading around collecting bogus sick slips. When it's a public employee I think they have an even greater responsibility to the "customers".
This is basically Choice 2.I said no. They don't have a responsibility, but any good company that wants to be successful and attract the best employees will certainly adopt more ethics policies and stances than a fair wage and safe work environment.
This statement is completely wrong. The govt has plenty of competition getting good employees.In the public sector, where the employer doesn't have any competition, then the employees are on their own for getting more or they can get a union.
