Assignment: Develop an Ethics Program
For this Assignment, you are to develop an ethics program for a fictitious company. The program should be in policy/program format. Use Tables 5.9, 5.10, 5.11, and 5.14 in Chapter 5 for guidance on the elements that you should include.
Your ethics program should be "values-based", as described on page 241 of your textbook. Make sure to include a company code/business conduct statement. This code should be, at a minimum, a code of ethics. However, you may choose to include a code that offers more in depth coverage of ethical issues. Your program should also include a description of the mechanisms in place to ensure compliance with the program (e.g. monitoring systems, reward systems) and details of consequences for unethical behavior.
Your program should be 5-7 pages long (including the title and reference pages). Your paper should be APA compliant.
