Ethics and Compliance in the Workplace

Training involves the application of acquired learning and proficiencies to new situations. Employers can implement many different training programs in the workplace. Different training methods can include on-the-job training, such as apprenticeship and job rotation, or offsite training and distance learning. The outcomes of the training can be cognitive, skill-based, or affective: Cognitive outcomes include declarative knowledge such as rules, facts, and principles (Landy & Conte, 2016). Skill-based outcomes are related to motor or technical skills. Affective outcomes are related to attitudes or beliefs that affect human behavior (Landy & Conte, 2016). Ethics training, sexual harassment awareness training, and cross-cultural (or diversity) training have become important elements of the training programs that organizations deliver to employees and leaders.
