Defining business ethics
'''

According to Clegg et all, business ethics are a practical form interpreted by a deep understanding and theory (Clegg, Kornberger, & Rhodes, 2007). While in other journal said ethics are mental responsibility of an individual (Ibarra-Cola- da, 2002; Soares, 2003; Watson, 2003)  and guaranteed in and through bureaucratic structures(du Gay, 2000, 2004).

So it can be concluded that ethics are individual responsibility occurred naturally that can be arranged through a predetermined rule structure, so it can be practiced properly.

Nowadays company’s success does not really rely on business strategy, quality product, innovation, branding, and etc. But it seems ethics is the one who has strongest influence on gaining business success. From the research Albu et all did, they conducted that:

 * In determining factors that influence not ethical behavior, 51% of participants indicated a desire for profit, 16% a desire for powerful rivalry, 14% personality and 19% other reasons.


 * In matters of view, there are many aspects that differentiate between ethical and unethical businesses that are professionalism, correctness, customer care, legal compliance, leadership, respect for partners, social responsibility operations, etc.


 * 40% of the participants said that they had to commit unethical when they faced uncertain situations within the company. Those who broke the ethics stated the quality of their work decrease due to work effort and stress that caused of unethical action they did.

Hence, ethical culture should be embedded in a company from top to bottom, and it should be known and applied by all employees.

Carita lilian on her research found a literature that can help to enhance business ethics and prevent unethical behavior. The survey found that theoretical tools, ethical theories and more practical tools like codes can be used in accordance with the character and gravity of the misconduct. In more detail, it demonstrates that codes of behavior and coding of ethics can be used as beneficial tools to guide government workers in their conduits, decision-making and day-to-day activities to implement their responsibilities and to punish their behavior. In terms of the ethics theories, Evidence shows that government officials and government service officials are applied to all three primary theories–virtue, consequential and de-ontological theories. The theories derive from various philosophical traditions and have distinct ethical outlooks and aims. This is why they are often regarded as inconsistent and hard to combine while attempting to tackle ethical problems. Studies however show that theories are often used at the same time, as they can complement each other when attempting to fix issues of ethics (Snellman, 2015).
