Business ethics have two dimensions, normative business ethics or descriptive business ethics. As a corporate practice and a career specialization, the field is primarily normative.

The range and quantity of business ethical issues reflects the interaction of profit-maximizing behavior with non-economic concerns. </p><p>Interest in business ethics accelerated dramatically during the 1980s and 1990s, both within major corporations and within academia.

It also has a huge focus in the auditing field whereby the type of verification can be directly dictated by ethical theory.

Honesty encompasses wholly the truthful speech and actions of an individual.

Many employees lie in order to reach goals, avoid assignments or negative issues; however, sacrificing honesty in order to gain status or reap rewards poses potential problems for the overall ethical culture organization, and jeopardizes organizational goals in the long run. Using company time or resources for personal use is also, commonly viewed as unethical because it boils down to stealing from the company. The misuse of resources costs companies billions of dollars each year, averaging about 4.25 hours per week of stolen time alone, and employees' abuse of Internet services is another main concern.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_187-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-187"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>187<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Bribery, on the other hand, is not only considered unethical is business practices, but it is also illegal.

When an individual is on the path of growing a company, many outside influences can pressure them to perform a certain way. The core of the person's performance in the workplace is rooted in their personal code of behavior. A person's personal code of ethics encompasses many different qualities such as integrity, honesty, communication, respect, compassion, and common goals. In addition, the ethical standards set forth by a person's superior(s) often translate into their own code of ethics. The company's policy is the 'umbrella' of ethics that play a major role in the personal development and decision-making processes that people make with respect to ethical behavior. </p><p>The ethics of a company and its individuals are heavily influenced by the state of their country. If a country is heavily plagued with poverty, large corporations continuously grow, but smaller companies begin to wither and are then forced to adapt and scavenge for any method of survival. As a result, the leadership of the company is often tempted to participate in unethical methods to obtain new business opportunities. Additionally, Social Media is arguably the most influential factor in ethics. The immediate access to so much information and the opinions of millions highly influence people's behaviors. The desire to conform with what is portrayed as the norm often manipulates our idea of what is morally and ethically sound. Popular trends on social media and the instant gratification that is received from participating in such quickly distort people's ideas and decisions. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Economic_systems">Economic systems</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Business_ethics&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Economic systems"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Political_economy" title="Political economy">Political economy</a> and <a href="/wiki/Political_philosophy" title="Political philosophy">political philosophy</a> have ethical implications, particularly regarding the distribution of economic benefits.<sup id="cite_ref-189" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-189"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>189<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/John_Rawls" title="John Rawls">John Rawls</a> and <a href="/wiki/Robert_Nozick" title="Robert Nozick">Robert Nozick</a> are both notable contributors.
