services) and imagine that you are at the national conference for the

and the course readings, discuss, analyze, and explain how the code of ethics
treats the following diverse populations in the workplace:
Women and gender issues.

Gay individuals.
Disabled and aging workers.
People with differing religious and spiritual beliefs.
Incorporate responses to the following in your comments:
Why is our organization’s code of ethics important?
How does a professional code of ethics affect operations and
effectiveness in our workplace?
What legal standards and laws are congruent with the code of
ethics?
What are the implications of our professional employees
failing to comply with the code of ethics?
