Ethics are a type of guide that people use to ensure their behavior is morally right. Often, ethical behavior is seen as something that benefits the greater good, and that helps people behave in ways that do not hurt others. Some might think that ethics apply only to religious life or social issues, but ethics guide behavior in everything we do, including behavior in the workplace. In technical fields such as engineering, information technology and the like, ethical guides provide a set of principles that aid professionals in solving problems, handling conflicts, and performing their daily activities.
