After doing a bit of research to see if company policies coincide along side of ethics and moral code. I figured it would be best to begin with explaining the true core meaning of what ethics is. The true meaning of Ethics is way of saying to anyone individual what type of moral fiber/compass to live by.
I truly believe that all companies/corporations that reinforce their policies based on ethics are more ethical than companies that are based without a structure of set ethic codes. Most companies should have a set of standard ethic and moral policies in place. Many have them but not all follow through on following them. There are a few movies out on the market they show and explain what is going on behind close door of these corporations for example "Too Big to Fail" and Fun with "Dick and Jane".
I once worked for a faith based nonprofit agency that would constantly contradict its policies with its faith-religion base. Due to these practices, this company/agency would treat its employees completely unethical when a situation arose that they didn't care for, not that the employee did anything wrong, the agency would simply just didn't like that he or she didn't shake enough hands and kiss enough babies.
This was a business practice that they had been using since 1935, they could terminate an employee for any reason but they would quickly say that they felt the employee is going in another direction they were. The usually lead to a termination of contract, in doing this it made it impossible to collect un-employment even after working for them 10-15 years. I was a lucky one to have had the ability to walk away after fives years working there and had not been shown the door like others had after 10-15 years of service to them. There happens to be a lot of Companies like these all over Florida " A Right to Work State" and they hide very well behind the law for their unethical business.
