John was recently hired by Backstreet Books, an eclectic bookstore in a large college town. At the beginning of the first day on the job, his store manager handed him a small booklet consisting of company rules. He was asked to read it and sign and submit the last page, before starting work. Among other things, the rules explicitly discussed reprimands for grievous behavior and dismissal if the firm could prove that the employee was stealing product from the store. This booklet represented the of the store. A. company-based ethicsB. compliance-based ethicsC. integrity-based ethicsD. whistleblowing-based ethics

B. Compliance based ethics

Explanation:

Compliance based ethics are ethical principles of an organization indicating the prevention, detection and punishment of non compliant behaviour. They are rules and regulations in which employees are expected to comply to. They are rules and guidelines created either by law of the country in the company is located in or the company's policy. From the details given in the question, John was given a compliance based ethic book of the company.

The correct answer is the option B: compliance-based ethics.

Explanation:

To begin with, a ''compliance-based ethics'' program is a model used by the companies in order to establish the rules of conduct for the employees inside the organization and also penalties to those that behave incorrectly according to what was established. Therefore that when Backstreet Books enforced John to read and sign the a small booklet consisting of company rules it represented the compliance-based ethics of the store due to the fact that it established the rules of conduct and the penalties as well.

all of them make sense but, i would have to say ask someone who has been there/or lives there, and/or read recent newspapers from that city.

hope this !
