Ethical standards play an important role in the structure and foundation of any successful company. Ethics is the study of what is right and wrong or what is good and bad. It is important to have a company or organization that holds its ethical standards very high. Not only do you want to make sure that the company that you work for is following all the laws that it needs to, you want to be sure that they also respect human rights as well as know what is right from wrong or good from bad, and when someone goes against that, they are dealt with properly. The company that I chose to assess is the company that I am proud to work for, Wynn Resorts. Wynn Resorts are known for being the winner of the most Forbes five star awards in the world to their amazing entertainment values and shows ("Wynn Las Vegas", 2015). Wynn Resorts take their code of business conduct and ethics very seriously. We have policies and procedures set into place so that we can ensure we remain the winner and give our guests exactly what they need without bending social or business barriers, yet catering to our guest needs.
External social pressures will always play an important role in how an organizations ethics are influenced. Not all external social pressures are good, yet being aware of them, we are able to stay in touch with the times and hopefully learn from them and move forward. With the internet being literally at everyone’s fingertips these days, companies are unable to ignore social pressures that their communities are placing on them. Organizations are constantly becoming more up to date on what is happening in rival business as well as their communities via social media. It is harder for companies to go against social norms due to the rapid forms of communication which keep their surrounding communities as well as businesses informed of how they are doing. If they are found to be treating their employees
