business relationships include both the external and internal relationships
that develop around the organization. For this assignment, you will focus on
the internal relationships that develop inside the organization. Studies have
indicated the more positive the environment within the organization, the more
productive the employees. Research one or a combination of these job-related
topics found within organizations: job discrimination; sexual harassment;
bullying or unsafe working conditions.

practices might a company implement to avoid negative behavior within their
organization?
5. How would
you rate the ethical practices of the company that you chose (excellent, fair
or poor)? Explain.
