Chapter 1The ProblemBackground of the studyWork ethic are standards or values that generally are based around conscientiousness. Mostly, they are thought to benefit a person morally, thereby improving their character. These ethic can include preserving social skills, being reliable, and being resourceful wherever needed in a work setting.Work ethic include not only how one feels about their job, career or vocation, but also how one does his/her job or responsibilities. This involves attitude, behavior, respect, communication, and interaction; how one gets along with others. Work ethic demonstrate many things about whom and how a person is. Work ethic involve such characteristics as honesty and accountability. Essentially, work ethic break down to what one does or would do in a particular situation. The begging question in a situation involves what is right and acceptable, and above board, versus what is wrong, underhanded, and under the table. Throughout the last few years, there have been companies whose work ethic -- honesty, integrity and accountability -- have been rather shady and have a rather negative impact on other people. This has involved people looking the other way when people have done something questionable, or thinking it would not matter. Work ethic, such as honesty (not lying, cheating, and stealing), doing a job well, valuing what one does, having a sense of purpose and feeling/being a part of a greater vision or plan is vital. Philosophically, if one does not have proper work ethic, a persons conscience may be bothered. People for the most part have good work ethic(s); we should not only want to do, but desire to do the proper thing in a given situation. Work ethic are intrinsic; they come from within. A question may involve where they came from, if they come from within. Philosophically, this may lead to various perspectives; however, the truth about work ethic, and where they come from are answered from a Christian worldview. Work ethic come from God the creator. God made humans in His image, and His word proclaims these various work ethic -- honesty, integrity, doing a job well, keeping things above board, and accountability factors. Workplace ethic is integral in fostering increased productivity and teamwork among employees. It helps in aligning the values of the institution with those of the workers. Achieving this alignment requires consistent dialogue regarding the values of the institution, which enhances community, integrity and openness among employees. Ethic enable your workers to feel a strong alignment between their values and those of your business. They show such feelings through increased productivity and motivation. Ethical conduct in the workplace encourages a culture of making decisions based on ethic. It also enhances accountability and transparency when undertaking any decisions. During turbulent times, a strong ethical culture guides one in managing such conflicts by making the right moves. It can help one to introduce change successfully in the organization, which can be a challenge. Ethical conduct within the business sensitizes employees on how to act consistently even in difficult times (Russel, 2015).Employers provide ethical principles for the workplace so that all employees follow the same standards, regardless of personal values and different cultural backgrounds. The principles allow them to voice their opinions freely and without fear, creating a sense of belonging for each employee in the workplace. To implement effective ethical principles in the workplace, employers must set out the objectives of the company orally and in writing.Ethical principles in the workplace can come into question when an employee needs to make a decision. A decision might involve fairness, truth or values in the workplace. It may concern a legal matter, professional or personal conflict. Even if an employee believes that he can get away with a decision and "no one will know," the decision could involve ethical principles. Employees confused about ethical principles in the workplace should be able to turn to their supervisors for guidance (Ramjee, 2015).The above facts and issues prompted the researcher to assess the work ethic of pharmacists in government tertiary hospitals of Baguio and Benguet.

Conceptual FrameworkWork ethic can be described as a set of values, which involves the right attitude, correct behavior, respect for others and effective communication. Essentially, work ethic regulate what an employee would do in different situations in office. The habit of following good work ethic is intrinsic - it comes from within. It involves our morality and other values, apart from what our parents have taught us. Workers exhibiting good work ethic are considered eligible for better positions and more responsibilities. These are the kind of people who are very sincere about the kind of work they do; they understand fully well how they have an effect on everyone. They generally know how their actions have a direct impact on other people at work. This conscientiousness persuades them to cultivate a responsible outlook to everything they do. These people do not need prodding like people who behave or work with slackness. The valuable assets of an office, these wonderful workers are highly reliable and are appreciated by their superiors for the wonderful uniqueness that they bring to the workplace. It is what most of the employers are looking for in a candidate. Hence, it becomes important to be honest, responsible and dependable. Honesty. Any job assigned to a person should be done with utmost honesty, without cheating, lying or stealing. It is psychologically proven that if a person does not follow work ethic, his/her conscience will be bothered at all times. Honesty is an attribute that always shines through. If their superior knows that the person is honest, he will trust him/her with anything blindly, even with the most confidential of the things. If one wants to be intricately involved in the decisions that matter in the institution then one have got to develop this wonderful quality. Dependability. Those who are dependable are considered reliable as well. Hence, it is necessary to develop the quality of being a responsible person. This will, in turn, foster excellent results and set one as a good example for those around him/her. If one is made in-charge of something or given an important task to finish then make it a lifes priority to complete it. Every time there is a need for one to be dependabletake it seriously. Once the person is famous for your dependability, one will be treated as an asset and be given the most important responsibilities.Efficiency. Efficiency is vital for ones own growth as well as for the betterment of the company one is working with. It is very easy to spot inefficient employees, who waste a lot of time and resources. However, efficiency is still a hallmark of good workers. Positive Work Habits. Inculcate good working habits that will impress the people whom one is working with and the superiors as well. Coming to work late, dressing inappropriately and shuffling jobs are considered as signs of not following good work ethic. If one have been assigned with a particular task then stick with it and do not whine about it. Help others whenever one can and always be ready to take up a new project or role. Think of the whole office as your responsibility and make sure that no ones time is wasted. Initiative. To be successful in whatever one does, it is vital to take initiatives. Dont wait to be told what to do. If one is doing the right thing in an acceptable manner, do not hesitate to take initiatives. If one thinks that something needs to be done and your sense of wrong and right tells one that it is imperativethen just do it. One does not have to think twice for it. Humility. Humbleness and modesty are amongst the necessary elements of good work ethic. Only a fool is arrogant, while a wise person always shows traits of humility. If one will think of yourself as a part of the whole then one will not feel the need to bring in ones ego between each and everything. The key is to not expect too much out of your subordinates and not to take the words of ones superiors negatively. If one is successful and really good at what he/she does then never flaunt it on everyones faces, it is a fact for one to rejoice not for everyone else to feel bad about themselves. Positive Attitude. Maintaining a positive attitude at work is very important to accomplish ones tasks successfully. This is because ones colleagues get affected by ones mannerism and respond accordingly. If one thinks something is difficult to achieve then find out all the ways that one can achieve it in. Do not keep a negative approach to anything work related or behavioral. Your aim should be to focus on the solution not the problem.
