Q:
The importance of ethics in business has long been identified as an essential component to success. Nevertheless, unethical behaviors such as prejudice and discrimination still occur in business. Common examples could include hiring and promoting based solely on gender, age, or physical disabilities. A more complicated type of prejudice is based on technological aptitude (or lack thereof). People who have a firm grasp on technology likely will have better job prospects, and this may be the reason why you are in school.
Explain why prejudice and discrimination behaviors are unethical, and offer ideas as to how these behaviors might be avoided. Specifically, in what ways could people decrease prejudice and discrimination in the business realm?
You are required to use a minimum of 2 credible sources (APA format) to support your reasoning.
