Integrity in the Workplace

Integrity is the act of behaving in an ethical, moral, honest and honorable way -- even when you know no one is watching.

If a manager runs out to the shop and leaves an employee in the office, they trust that that employee will continue with their work whether they are being supervised or not.

An employee who starts playing games on their phone as soon as the manager has left, is not showing integrity.

The word ‘integrity’ doesn’t feature heavily in job descriptions, but it is a quality that every employer looks for in an employee.
