6) Imagine that you are the president of a small high-technology firm. Your
company has grown over the last few years to the point where you feel that
it is important that your employees have some guidelines regarding ethics.
Define the type of company you are running, then develop an appropriate
code of ethics. As in Question 2.5, start by deciding what type of code is
appropriate for your company. Then, list specific points that are important
for example, relationships with vendors, treatment of fellow employees, etc.
Finally, write a code that incorporates these features. In developing your
code of ethics, you should think about the difference between business
policies and ethical concerns. For example, business policies might be
specific about what time workers should arrive each day and how many
hours they should work; a code of ethics would focus more on integrity in
following the business rules of a company.
