Summary:In business ethics, clear communication from theorists (academics) to practitioners (managers) is crucial if positive effects in the workplace are to be achieved. Unfortunately, such communication does not always occur. What managers frequently get is often not what they need, which is theory in a workable and relatively simple format - guidelines which may be consulted when making difficult decisions or which may be implemented as company policy. It is the academics who must change. These considerations are retained in a discussion of employee rights.
