Fraud is known to have increased in organisations and corruption in certain areas is rife. Do we participate in this type of behaviour or turn a blind eye to it?
Organisations desire to attract employees who have high ethics and stand firm against fraudulent activities. Unfortunately, this is not always the result. Individuals come from different backgrounds and as such have different drivers, morals and values.
Honourable ethics and corruption are on opposite sides of the pole. This programme is designed to raise moral standards as a counter to potential or real corruption within a work environment. The focus is on ethics and not corporate governance.
Unethical behaviour in organisations is dangerous. Ethics is about consistency.
