The U.S congress passed the National Research Act forming the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Behavioural and Biomedical Research. The commission then created the resulting Belmont Report. The commission concluded three ethical principles that ought to guide human research.

Ethics management strategies Ethics management strategies are essential in the management of organizations. Effective ethics management strategies are critical in ensuring that various facets of an organization are well managed in line with relevant ethos and values in the entire organization. In the Berman and Armstrong articles of ethics management strategies, several effective ethic strategies can be used to manage an organization. These strategies are likely to provide room for the organization to realize its noble goals, thus improving the company’s productivity. Among the strategies that I consider useful include setting appropriate ethical standards within the organization. These ethical standards need to be adequately defined through the values and rules of the company.
