Code of Conduct 2
National Australian Bank
It is the fourth major company in Australia, which provides the financial services to the
customers. The company was originated in 1982 and has the headquarter in Melbourne,
Australia. However, in the present era, the company was facing huge problems so they decided
to follow the policies of the code of conduct (Thomson and Jain, 2016). The company was
facing a problem in internet banking, as their balances were not properly displaying. They are
facing a major issue with the widespread system outages. Another problem was seen with the
mobile app as it was affecting the debit and credit balances. The code of conduct of the NAB’s
outlines the ethical conduct and the standards of the responsibility, which drive the right things.
Discrimination
Discrimination can be defined as to make the distinction in any activity. Discrimination can be
referred to as to make the treatment of the individual or the group in an unfair way. There should
be no discrimination based on age, color, religion, gender, disability (Friedberg, 2014).
Every person in the NAB’s should be treated with equality and there should be no discrimination
based on the characteristics such as the race, gender, act, etc. If any person discriminates any
person and does not act equally with the customers or the employees then they may be
eliminated from, the company and the fines can be imposed on them.
At the workplace of the NAB's one employee's Tony was discriminated by the team of the
employees as they were making the fun and teasing the one employee. Tony was teased with
feminine characteristics (Hill, 2012). Another employee Wialliam also teased Tony by saying
that the shirt he is wearing is the gay shirt today. As Tony knows that, everyone was just joking
but the one employee Jane was not satisfied with his or her offensive comments and offends the
employees that to behave in such manner is not acceptable in the workplace. As per the Code of
the Conduct, the employees have to apologies the Tony and they were warned that such behavior
will not accept further and harsh actions will be engaged against them. Code of conduct
maintains enthusiasm in the workplace.
