Moral and Ethics
Morality: It refers to the principles or rules of
moral conduct.

Standards and systems that provide guidance


on how to act.

Morality has a broad meaning that extends


beyond rules in professional codes of conduct
adopted by corporations and professional
association.

Morals define personal character, while ethics


stress a social system in which those morals are
applied.
Ethics” is from a Greek word ‘ethos’
which also means custom or habit.

Ethics is defined as “the discipline


dealing with what is good and bad or
right and wrong; a group of moral
principles or a set of values.”

Rational examination of moral beliefs


and behavior or the study of morality.

“Ethics is knowing the difference


between what you have a right to do
and what is the right thing to do.”
(Former Supreme Court Judge, United
States), Justice Potter Stewart).
