Ethics and the Law; Lesson Assignment Directions

As shown in Lesson 1, businesses operate within an extensive governance of the law. Planned actions by management must adhere to standards and current legislation enacted to protect stakeholders. Ignorance of the law is not tolerated, and as such the business must be aware of regulations that govern its conduct. Although they are so-called grey areas of legal interpretation, the courts expect decisions to be made as reasonably and ethically sound as possible within the framework of the law.
