Code of Ethics: Linear Presentation Template You can think of your Code of Ethics as two documents in one: Firstly, the inner core of your document is: your Code of Ethics proper. This lays out the rules and behaviours expected of employees. This element of your document should NOT use any in-text referencing to support the statements made. You are creating rules, and not copying these from elsewhere. To use in-text referencing undermines the rule-like status of the statements produced. Secondly, wrapped around the inner core: a discussion document which allows you to evidence your research and learning on the topic of Codes of Ethics/Codes of Conduct. Here, you should use in-text referencing to support your discussion of the core concepts for this assignment: Discrimination Exploitation Corruption Dishonest and Fraudulent Behaviour Whistleblower Protections Enforcement The document you submit should make it apparent to your reader, which sections of the document are discussion (including citations); and which sections lay down the rules for the company employees (free of citations). This is one of two Template documents, offering a method to separate out the two document functions. Codes of Conduct This is all you need to write by way of ‘Introduction’ to your assignment. Write a short paragraph, no more than c. 200 -250 words, that shows you know what a Code of Ethics (or Code of Conduct) is and what a company Code of Ethics is supposed to do. Use in-text referencing to some academic articles, to show the reading you have been doing on this topic. Discrimination Discrimination: Discussion Brief discussion (one short paragraph, no more than 150 – 200 words) that defines the concept of Discrimination as a moral term. Use in-text referencing to support your definition. Provide one or two examples of workplace acts that would amount to discrimination. (Your examples may briefly mention facts you have learned through the Case Study.) Discrimination: Code of Ethics You can lay out rules for behaviour for the employees of Flight Centre: things they are allowed to do, and actions that are not permitted. If you like, you can use dot points to lay out your rules: · Employees must show respect for other persons in the workplace;· During the recruitment process, employees must do ……. and not do …..· etc. Note: the Code of Ethics section should NOT provide in-text referencing. You are creating rules, and not copying these from elsewhere. To use in-text referencing undermines the rule-like status of the statements produced Exploitation Exploitation: Discussion Section follows the same procedure as for ‘Discrimination’: short paragraph of definition plus examples of behaviours to be ruled out by your Code of Ethics. In-text citations are advisable Exploitation: Code of Ethics Avoid in-text referencing for this section. Corruption Section follows the same procedure as for ‘Discrimination’: short paragraph of discussion (with in-text citations); and a Code of Ethics section without in-text citations. Dishonest and Fraudulent Behaviour Section follows the same procedure as for ‘Discrimination’: short paragraph of discussion (with in-text citations); and a Code of Ethics section without in-text citations. Whistleblower Protections Section follows the same procedure as for ‘Discrimination’. You should give some sense as to why companies might provide whistleblower protections for employees that are revealing unwelcome truths about their operations. Freely employ in-text citations for this discussion. Enforcement An important final section to your assignment that offers the overall ‘conclusion’ to the document. In this section, you are describing How employees are educated around the Code of Ethics The measures that will be taken against employees who fail to uphold the Code of Ethics. There should be a sliding scale of penalties to reflect the levels of infraction: fines, then for more serious offences, laying off from work; and perhaps finally dismissal from the job. References You list the sources (at least 5 of a properly ‘academic’ nature) that you consulted when writing your assignment. Notes: For the Definitions of key ethical terms: Use a range of sources of information.
