Develop a set of guidelines that will help you navigate ethical dilemmas as you start your career. Companies and professional organizations often establish Codes of Ethical Conduct to guide employees’ actions and decisions. These organizations often find that by going through the process of developing these standards and carefully considering what they want to stand for, ethical awareness is stronger with the organization or the profession.
There are many online sources; look up a professional organization or a favorite company to see what they have developed.
