Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An ethics committee is a group of executives assigned to oversee the organisation's ethics by ruling on questionable issues and disciplining violators. A code of ethics is a written document outlining an organisation's ethical standards, but it does not necessarily include a committee or individuals responsible for enforcing those standards. An ethical ombudsman is a designated person within an organisation who listens to ethical concerns and complaints from employees and other stakeholders. The thought police and the ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission) are not relevant to this question.
