  • Ethical conduct is behavior that follows moral principles.
  • Ethical actions are those actions that are perceived as beneficial and conform to the ethical expectations of society.

Ethics encompass a set of moral principles (code of ethics) and standards of conduct that provide guidance for our behavior. Violations can harm the community in a variety of ways.
