QUESTIONS

1. Describe in your own words what code of conduct means?

A Code of Conduct is a set of guidelines that outline a particular entity or an organization's


values, rules, and obligations or proper practices. A workplace code of ethics is a collection of
rules that are generally written for a company's employees, which protects the company and
tells the employees of the standards of the company. For even the smallest of businesses, it
is necessary to establish a checklist containing valuable details on employee priorities. It does
not need to be complicated or have elaborate rules in the paper.

2. Describe in your own words what code of practice means?

A code of conduct is a collection of formal guidelines that describe how persons who work in
a specific field should behave. By trading with stolen goods, the auctioneers are breaking a
code of practice.

3. What is an example of an organisation's grievance policy? How are clients informed of


the rights and responsibilities in relation to receiving services from your organisation?

Any issue, difficulty, or annoyance that a member of staff has in the workplace is an example
of a grievance. They may be about other team members, leadership, working environments,
workloads. So there are no limits on what a complaint might be about. Treat all workers who
file complaints fairly. At every point of the process, maintain secrecy. When necessary, settle
any complaints. When workers file complaints with the organization or external authorities,
honor its non-retaliation policy (e.g. equal employment opportunity committee)

4. What is duty of care?


a. Give an example of a breach of duty of care.
b. What is standard of care?
A duty of care is a moral requirement imposed on a person that needs a level of fair care to be
adhered to when performing certain actions that may predictably harm others. It is the first
factor that must be formed to proceed with a negligent action.
a. A person incurs an affirmative obligation to act in a case. Failure to behave fell behind a
fair level of treatment. Example: A mother is not helping her child cross the street. The
inaction of the mother is irresponsible in causing injury to the child if the child strays into
traffic and is injured.
b. The standard of care is the only degree of prudence and restraint expected for a person
who is under a duty of care. The standard's standards rely closely on circumstances.
The trier of fact decides whether the duty of treatment has been violated and is generally
phrased in terms of the reasonable person. In Vaughn, it was famously described as
"proceed with such reasonable caution as a prudent man would have exercised under
such circumstances"

5. What is the code of ethics?


a. What is an ethical dilemma?
b. What is the meaning of Ethical responsibilities?

A code of ethics, also known as an "ethical code," includes areas such as corporate ethics, a
code of professional practice, and a code of conduct for employees. Organizations adopt
ethical guidelines that encourage participants to recognize the distinction between right and
wrong and to extend that knowledge to their decisions. In general, an ethical code means
manuals at three levels: corporate ethics codes, staff codes of conduct, and professional
practice codes.
a.A decision-making challenge between two potential moral imperatives is an ethical dilemma,
ethical paradox, or moral dilemma, neither of which is unambiguously reasonable or preferable.
The ambiguity emerges from the situational tension in which compliance can contribute to
another transgression
b. Ethical responsibility is the capacity of a given area and/or context to identify, perceive, and
function on various beliefs and values according to the norms.

15. Why do you believe it’s important to include policies and procedures in the staff
induction to the organisation?

The key aim of an induction is to merge the organization with your new employees and to
teach them the procedures, operations, community, principles, and the institution itself. In a
moment when many new hires will make a decision in the early days about whether to stay or
go, it also lets them relax into a new climate.

16. Who would you consult with if a policy needed to be changed in the organisation?

You ought to communicate with all relevant parties, including health and safety officials,
vendors (especially those who routinely work with you, and, of course, your staff while
designing your policies and procedures. Consultation should ensure that the value of
corporate practices and processes is recognized by every employee in your workplace and
why they need to be successfully enforced.

18. Describe an example of task/activity outside a specified work role as a carer? How
would you clarify this with a job supervisor?

Any carers may have to assist someone with things such as banking, shopping, and
housework where the entity is very autonomous. Other caregivers may have a more intensive
function in all everyday life activities, including eating, washing, dressing, going to the
bathroom, and taking medication.
Clarification:
Definition of Analysis Work
Discuss with Manager over job obligations
Defining roles and obligations
Communicating work tasks

19. Provide an example of when a staff accepts responsibility for his/ her own actions within
his/ her work role, e.g. when he/ she has reported an incident or issue, clarified his/ her
duty of care requirements, provided/ sought feedback regarding his/ her work role and
legal obligations

Jobs are liable for minimizing or restricting the amount of damage or disability they can suffer
from their customers. This duty is known as 'care duty' and it can also feel daunting. For
instance, our obligation to one party (for instance, our employer) may clash profoundly with
our duty to our customers. It helps to note that a juggling act is a duty of responsibility.
A responsibility of treatment has several aspects:
Judicial - What does the statute mean that we are doing?
Professional/ethical - What do we expect from other workers?
Organizational - What should people think we can do with our company and its financing
body?
Community - What do our client's parents and other members of the community want us to
do?
Private - What do we do with our convictions and values?

20. Describe duty of care in relation to job role as a carer. How is a staff informed about
their duty of care? E.g. supervisor feedback, organisational policy, job description?

Your duty of care ensures you must try to do the best of your abilities with high-quality care
and state if there are any reasons why you will not be able to do so. When practitioners
operate under an obligation of care, they have to do as would be expected to do by a fair
citizen given their experience and context.
You owe a duty of care to the persons you assist, your friends, your boss, yourself, and the
public interest as a care worker. All have a treatment obligation-it is not something you should
get out of.
You must do it with their permission when behaving in the best interests of a citizen unless
you have proof that the individual is unable to make the particular decision at the moment it
needs to be made.

21. Within a work role as a carer how do you seek agreement from clients before delivering
services? What is an example of organisations policy on seeking agreement for
services?

A protocol is a plan of action or rules to be implemented, while a policy process specifies what
needs to be done to enact the policy. For starters, the following protocols may be involved in
a personnel recruiting policy:
In local and state-wide magazines, all empty paying vacancies will be advertised.
There will be details of tasks, pay level, closing date, and contact details for the ads.
Job details and information about the organization will be submitted to all interested persons.

1." Legal" and "ethical" all act as nouns and adjectives. Their roots are different-"legal" comes
from Anglo-French, while "ethical" comes from Middle English and Greek. Nevertheless, both
have a similar base in Latin.
2. Both "legal" and "ethical" are considered to be conventions and techniques for performing a
certain form of behavior and operation.
3. There is a contrast in terms of scope and implementation. To a more widespread scope,
"legal" can apply, while "ethical" applies on an individual basis.
4."Legal" has its ethical foundation, whereas "ethics" has its moral basis. In their views, they
both judge certain conduct or action either as of right or wrong.
"5. Legal" provides a more factual view, whereas, depending on the individual, "ethics" has a
personal and varied view.

26. What would you do if confronted with a legal or an ethical dilemma?

 Identify the legal questions involved. There are ethical questions, in a general
context, if one's decisions influence another. In the workplace, the actions of
management could influence workers, consumers, vendors, creditors, and
shareholders. These are the organization's owners.
 Identify alternate paths of operation. Any dilemma offers more than just one
chance. Personal and corporate dilemmas can be overcome by careful
treatment of workplace ethics problems. The next step, by defining the
alternatives.
 To settle on a course of action using ethical reasoning. To make rational
choices, ethical thinking skills are necessary.

27. Personal values, beliefs, attitudes and culture influence how everyone responds to
different situations. Discuss how you, can ensure that you respect all client’s values,
beliefs, attitudes and culture regardless of whether they differ from your own.

We also have our ideals, convictions, and behaviors as human beings that we have
established throughout our lives. Our families, friends, culture, and the experiences we've all
had all add to our understanding of who we are and how we see the world. As employees in
community care, we also deal with individuals that are disadvantaged and/or who may live a
lifestyle that is distinct or inappropriate to normal society. If we want to deliver a service that
addresses the needs of our target audiences as community service employees and makes
them feel motivated, we need to be mindful of our ideals, views, and attitudes and be willing
to follow our industry's ethical values and not force our ideas on our consumers.
