Ethical lapses in the Workplace

The article seems like solid evidence that ethical lapses do affect the workplace and the productivity of the employees. However, this article does not shock me. These days people love scandal and gossip so when something unethical happens in their workplace, people are going to be distracted and talk to each other; therefore distracting others. I know that when an ethical lapse occurs in studio, we will talk about it with our fellow students and end up not getting any work done. According to the survey, I guess that's what happens in a workplace also.

I think that the article does a good job of describing how distracted the employees got and how they reacted to an ethical lapse in their workplace. We just assume that it happens but the article uses specific statistics to prove it.
