Apply Business Ethics in a Work Environment U/S 113924

INTRODUCTION

This learning program is part of a complete qualification. The qualification is General Security Practices NQF level 3.

Business ethics is the behaviour that a business adheres to in its daily dealings with the world. The ethics of a particular business can be diverse. They apply not only to how the business interacts with the world at large but also to their one-on-one dealings with a single customer. In the increasingly conscience-focused marketplaces of the 21st century, the demand for more ethical business processes and actions (known as ethicism) is increasing. Simultaneously, pressure is applied to the industry to improve business ethics through new public initiatives and law.

A person accredited with this unit standard will be able to:
♦ Reflect on own values and belief systems and how they influence own behaviour.
♦ Discuss how an individual`s ethics impact on the people around him/her.
♦ Explain how an individual can behave ethically in a business context.
♦ Demonstrate techniques for dealing with situations where own values and ethics conflict with work practice.

This program is compiled for the following target group:
• Security members
• South African Defense Force members
• South African Police Force members
• Correctional Services
• Individuals who wish to complete the NQF level 3 National Certificate in Security practices.
