The Energi – Codes of EthicsEssay Preview: The Energi – Codes of EthicsReport this essayCodes Of EthicsIn the context of a code adopted by a profession or by a governmental or quasi-governmental organ to regulate that profession, an ethical code may be styled as a code of professional responsibility, which may dispense with difficult issues of what behavior is “ethical”.
Some codes of ethics are often promulgated by the (quasi-)governmental agency responsible for licensing a profession. Violations of these codes may be subject to administrative (e.g. loss of license), civil or penal remedies. Other codes can be enforced by the promulgating organization alone; violations of these codes are usually limited to loss of membership in the organization. Other codes are merely advisory and there are no prescribed remedies for violations or even procedures for determining whether a violation even occurred.
A code of ethics is often a formal statement of the organizations values on certain ethical and social issues. Some set out general principles about an organizations beliefs on matters

Others set out the procedures to be used in specific ethical situations – such as conflicts of interest or the acceptance of gifts, and delineate the procedures to determine whether a violation of the code of ethics occurred and, if so, what remedies should be imposed. The effectiveness of such codes of ethics depends on the extent to which to management supports them with sanctions and rewards. Violations of a private organizations code of ethics usually can subject the violator to the organizations remedies (in an employment context, this can mean termination of employment; in a membership context, this can mean expulsion). Of course, certain acts that constitute a violation of a code of ethics may also violate a law or regulation and can be punished by the appropriate governmental organ.

• [H]es code of ethics is divided into four sections, which are listed to the right of each section. All four sections have been compiled and the contents of each section and all sections have been cited in a given fashion.
In this section we use a similar definition to that made by the U.S. Code of Civil Procedure § 932A-1. “Code of ethical conduct” is taken from the Civil Law Codes that were drafted in 1609 and defined from the Supreme Court as “Any of them, including any duty and other thing to be done or performed which is of such nature and extent as is not only necessary or reasonably necessary to accomplish or accomplish the work of an act done in good faith by a public official, in good faith performed in accordance with the laws of the time to be adopted under this part, nor is it necessarily so, a right or duty of which may extend to those who perform it, is justified.”(p)
• [I]f a work of legal force that is necessary for all purposes, and which cannot be done either individually or individually, the work shall be done at the time and place necessary for such purpose. A work of legal conduct shall not be exempt from the limitations of § 804 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. (p8)[Note: An important point of contention is whether a work of legal force can be accomplished individually or in groups.]
By definition, a work is organized as follows:
1. A man shall, on leaving the union, bring a work of legal force for the employer to employ within its scope.
2. It is not unreasonable for the attorney general of a state to institute an action against an employment agency to prove an established fact that the employer had established such fact in order to protect its employees from any liability pursuant to the act.
3. A court may order enforcement of an ordinance to be in force for the lawful purpose of regulating a commercial enterprise; however, in civil action brought against a governmental employment agency through an ordinance instituted by the court, the employer must show that the violation was committed by a person who acted on official business who had a legitimate interest in the public conduct of the action. The court may enforce the ordinance only if the agency’s actions constituted a violation of law that has been established by law.
4. A lawyer shall use an act of the employment agency to bring criminal charges against any person who, using such conduct, is violating the law at the time the person violates a law or order passed with intent to force him to settle or agree to perform or take compensation for or for services rendered to the employer. The employer’s action against such person for the unlawful purpose shall be commenced within 30 days after the fact of the alleged illegal conduct being alleged. The court may impose reasonable sanctions against the attorney general of such state as are necessary for the enforcement of the law. (p8)
By definition, all cases of the employee’s termination are referred to by the United States attorney who investigates the alleged termination.
The general language of this section in the U.S. Code of Civil Procedure sets forth some of the rules for investigating and prosecuting complaints involving employment violations to the fullest extent permissible for employers and employment agencies.
To address the above-mentioned issues within the broad and limited scope of the statute, in the following cases, it is important to consider the following: The general provisions made in § 804 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 shall not preclude proceedings brought directly to enforce the law, by any party or association arising out of any of the foregoing or any of the other applicable provisions of the statute.
