Question

Activity to improve ethical behavior by enacting various legislation is not taken at _________.

• A. government level
• B. institutional level
• C. industrial level
• D. societal level

Answer 1

The correct option is A government level

The major problem for implementing effective Codes of Ethics remains that no law or Code will be of much value if individual civil servants lack the technical competence to recognize an ethics problem for what it is, or if they do not know what standards their organization expects of them, or (worst of all), if they consider it to be not in their interests, personally or professionally, to take a stand for integrity and against corruption.

Measures taken to improve ethical behavior at Government Level are
-companies to follow various legislation such as the Minimum Wages Act, Essential Commodities Act etc,
- framing laws and strict penalties if laws do not adhere.
- The government should announce the certain reward for individuals who practice ethical behavior like Indira Gandhi Paryavaran Puraskar
-Using mass media to educate people.
