THE IMPORTANCE OF WORK ETHICS

supermarket photoIn todays society we have a very
high-tech, fast paced way of life. Many people rely
on technology for everything. They depend on
technology for all sorts of things, writing,
communication, information, and recreational use.
One thing that technology cannot be relied on for
would be a persons work ethic. Someones work
ethic is a very important part of a person; this is how
someone acts at work. A work ethic is simply the
way of acting in a place of profession, a way to
strengthen character.
A work ethic is very important; there can be a good
or bad work ethic. One who has a good work ethic is
the one who is most reliable and more willing to get
further with the job/career. Many things can help
characterize ones good work ethic; attendance,
teamwork, appearance, and also attitude.
Perhaps someone has a first job of working at
Dominos pizza. In doing this job it takes thought and
concentration, it may not seem like it but it does.
Working at Dominos, you have to know how to slap
out the dough, spread sauce, cheese, and top the
pizzas correctly. Many people think that making a
pizza is the simplest thing to do, but in preparing a
pizza properly you have to be able to top everything
with the correct amount of toppings and the correct
weight of cheese. The only way an employee can
continue pursuing their career or job is with a good
work ethic. If you had a bad work ethic, you would
be the person that just lollygags and jokes around,
not making any progress or giving yourself a good
image.
The workforce is a very important aspect of
someones life and their work ethic is the only real
way that you can tell if someone is going to be
successful in what they do for a living, part-time job
or even random odd jobs.
The real key to success is a good work ethic. If you
want to succeed in life, you need to have a good
work ethic. Having a poor work ethic can hold you

back from getting a job and preventing you from


having the life you have always dreamed of.
Also, a persons work ethic can tell you a lot about
the person. If one has a good work ethic, you can
almost always assume that this person is going to be
reliable, trustworthy, and efficient in what they do
as in work, or anything. If someone has a bad work
ethic, then you can basically tell that they are going
to be lazy, uncaring, and untrustworthy.
So as you can tell, someones work ethic is a very
important part of their character.
Without good ethics, you can most certainly
guarantee that you will not be too successful in any
career or job. Work ethics are truly what builds
someones character and with these good work
ethics, you can be absolutely sure to make your life
the greatest that you would hope it to be.

RELATIONSHIP OF ETHICS WITH OTHER SCIENCES


The Science of Ethics is greatly concerned with the
study of the human conduct and how man behaves
or acts in accordance with morality. For this reason it
is evident that the Ethical science is also related to
some other sciences that also deal with the study of
the human nature as well as in human living. Among
of this sciences are Logic, Psychology, Sociology, and
Economics.

As defined, Ethics is the science that deals with how
man act correctly, of course in accordance with
morality. This science is somehow related to the
science of Logic which defined as the science of
correct thinking. The reason for this is that because
when an individual think right means he/she will do
the right. This is how Logic is related to Ethics. Logic
tells us how to think right so that an individual can
do the right and doing the right with the basis of
morality is what we consider as Ethics.
For some reason, Ethics is also related to the science
of Psychology. The relation between these two
sciences is based upon the comparison on their basic
aim that is to study man, its nature and its behavior.
However, there is a basic difference between Ethics
and Psychology. The science of Psychology is not
concerned with the morality of mans action; this
science is only concern of how man ought to behave.
Ethics is somehow related to the field of Sociological
science. They are related as Ethics is concerned in
dealing with the moral order that eventually includes
the social order of society. It was being said that
society depends upon the science of Ethics for its
principles. Sociology as a science is concerned with
the relationship of humans to his/her fellow

individuals and to his/her society upon the


observance on the moral laws and principles that
will eventually regulate mans action in his/her
community.
Ethics is somehow related to the field of Economics.
As economics deals with labor, wages, production, as
well as distribution of wealth, Ethics as a science
somehow acts in the different relations in the
business processes. This would be based on justice,
charity as well as moral principles that would
eventually creates a prevailing harmony in the
community. Man can also be considered as an
economic being. This consideration involves man in
different economic activities which should be guided
with the norms and principles of Ethics.

IMPORTANCE OF A WORK
1.
If you have a job or a career, you can earn
money. If you can earn money, you can buy things
you need, pay your bills, have a place to live, and
basically do things you want to do. Without money,
you cant do much!
2.
Having a job or career makes you feel good.
Yeah, you heard us right. Knowing you can do
something well and earn money for your skill is a
great feeling.

When you work, you contribute to the
community. You help make the economy and your
community stronger. You are being a productive
citizen (which communities like) and a valued
community member

When you work, you develop new skills,
learn new things, and create a record of
employment. Then when you want to get a new or a
better job, or maybe even go to college, your
experiences can help you to do that.

dependability by being reliable and performing


consistently.
Dedication
Those with a good work ethic are dedicated to their
jobs and will do anything they can to ensure that
they perform well. Often this dedication leads them
to change jobs less frequently, as they become
committed to the positions in which they work and
are not eager to abandon these posts. They also
often put in extra hours beyond what is expected,
making it easy for their employers to see that they
are workers who go beyond the rest of the
workforce and truly dedicate themselves to their
positions.
Productivity
Because they work at a consistently fast pace,
individuals with a good work ethic are often highly
productive. They commonly get large amounts of
work done more quickly than others who lack their
work ethic, as they don't quit until they've
completed the tasks with which they were
presented. This high level of productivity is also due,
at least in part, to the fact that these individuals
want to appear to be strong workers. The more
productive they are, the more beneficial to the
company they appear to those managing them.

Reliability
Reliability goes hand in hand with a good work ethic.
If individuals with a good work ethic say they are
going to attend a work function or arrive at a certain
time, they do, as they value punctuality. Individuals
with a strong work ethic often want to appear
dependable, showing their employers that they are
workers to whom they can turn. Because of this,
they put effort into portraying -- and proving -- this

Cooperative work can be highly beneficial in the


business environment, something that individuals
with a strong work ethic know well. Because they
recognize the usefulness of cooperative practices -such as teamwork -- they often put an extensive
amount of effort into working well with others.
These individuals commonly respect their bosses
enough to work with any individuals with whom they
are paired in a productive and polite manner, even if
they do not enjoy working with the individuals in
question.
Character

Those with a good work ethic often also possess


generally strong character. This means they are selfdisciplined, pushing themselves to complete work
tasks instead of requiring others to intervene. They
are also often very honest and trustworthy, as they
view these traits as befitting the high-quality
employees they seek to become. To demonstrate
their strong character, these workers embody these
positive traits daily, likely distinguishing themselves
from the rest.

future employees of the firm? Leadership begins


with self-confidence, is molded by positive
reinforcement and repetitive success.

6. Cultural Fit Are you going to enjoy working with


this individual on a daily basis? Are your employees
going to enjoy working with this individual? When
recruiting, personality can mean the difference
between an employee who doesnt stay long and
fails to produce vs. an all-star who is going to
significantly increase your competitive advantage.

1. Action-oriented Hire employees who take action


and take chances. While chances may lead to
failure, they will more often lead to success and
mold confidence while generating new ideas.
Stagnant employees wont make your company
money; action-oriented employees will.

7. Upbeat Employees who come into work fresh


and energetic everyday are going to outproduce
workers who think negatively and easily burn-out
when they encounter defeat.
Upbeat and
optimistic employees create a working environment
that is unique, spawns new ideas and, just as
important is enjoyable for the other people involved.

2. Intelligent Intelligence is not the only thing, but


its a strong foundation for success. While there are
many variables you can be flexible on when hiring,
intelligence is a must or youre going to be spending
an
abundance

time
proofing
work,
micromanaging and dealing with heightened stress
levels.

8. Confident Confidence produces results and


encourages employees to take on challenges that
others shy away from. The best companies are
highly confident in their abilities to provide a
superior product or service and this belief spawns a
culture of improvement and client confidence.

3. Ambitious Employees can only help your


company if they want to help themselves have a
better career. Ambition is what makes a company
innovative, its what spawns creative ideas and what
generates candor and openness amongst
employees.

9. Successful One of the most effective ways to


predict future success in a candidate is their past
success at other firms. Have they remained at
companies for a prolonged period? Have they met
company goals? What achievements have these
individuals accomplished? If one looks closely, a lot
can be deciphered from a resume.

4. Autonomous You are hiring an employee who


can get the job done without extensive handholding. As the owner of the company, you have
your own tasks to take care of and, when you
delegate activities to the individual whom youre
hiring, you dont want 20 questions, rather you want
execution.

10. Honest An employee can have all the talent in


the world, but without integrity and authenticity,
nothing great will be accomplished. If nothing else,
you want honest, forthright employees at your
organization, otherwise your company will turn off
clients and, ultimately wont survive.

being a significant part of your company and leading

11. Detail Oriented Attention to detail is crucial or


mistakes will be made within your company. Detail-

oriented employees take pride in their work. They


dot the is, cross the ts and get the job done.
12. Modest The most sought after employees
shout their value not through their words, but rather
through their work. They are humble, dont need to
pump themselves up in front of others and quietly
outproduce those who do.
13. Hard working Nothing great is accomplished
easily. Nothing great is accomplished via hiring 9 5
employees. Rather, the foundation of an effective
organization lies in its ability to recruit results
oriented, hard working employees who execute.
14. Marketable By marketable, I mean presentable
to clients. Business is not a fashion contest nor do
looks dictate success, however most successful
applicants are well put together and, when dealing
with clients are going to represent your organization
as professional and organized.
15. Passionate Employees who are passionate
about their job never work a day in their life. While
money should be a motivator in all individuals whom
you hire, make sure that they enjoy the journey
when pursuing that end-goal.
