What are some common ethical problems at work place?

Being ethical isn’t easy for many reasons including the complexity of ethical decisions and working in an unethical environment. Ethical violations by rank-and-file workers are widespread, particularly with respect to lying. Those who are in authority usually do not follow ethical principles or values. Sometimes it becomes difficult to work according to your principles and code of conduct. Some workers feel that they are not being treated fairly. Criterion for promotion should be the performance rather than personal likes or dislikes. Gender-based harassment is also observed at some work places which is illegal and unethical.
