Ethics training can show employees how to recognize and respond to the

• A. Unethical actions on the part of others
• B. Symptoms of substance abuse in others
• C. Interpersonal skills that influence others
• D. Organizational structure of their department

Answer: (A)

Ethics training focuses on spotting behavior that violates the organization’s standards and policies and learning the proper way to respond. It teaches you to recognize unethical actions by others and to handle them through appropriate channels, such as reporting to the right supervisor, following established procedures, and documenting concerns while protecting yourself from retaliation. This emphasis is about integrity and proper escalation, not about health issues, influencing or manipulating others, or understanding how the department is structured. So the scenario described—recognizing and addressing unethical actions by others—is exactly what ethics training aims to equip employees to do.
