In a competitive arena of corporate world, having experience gives you a better chance of landing on a better job.

Internships are the most common way of gaining experience for fresh new graduate students.But there are many internships in India which are unpaid, further even jobs are unpaid.


In a country which resides the youngest population in the world, competition for jobs are stiff.

There fore people do unpaid jobs to gain experience in the hope of getting a better job later.

Now comparing it with other developed countries where there is laws on salaries, In Australia an employer cannot pay an employee less than $20 /hour (1000 Rs /hour).
If such employer is found guilty, actions are taken against the employer and also the employee for working under minimal wage.

Every year 11 million graduate students from college look for jobs.

Because of the huge unemployment in the country, they have to work for free, they are sometimes not even given basic facilities like food, transportation or accommodation. Which means they are paying to work.


There is no law in India which guidelines the internship exploitation. Ethically unpaid internships and jobs are not right. Ethics do not promote unpaid work. But, since ethics is not a force the employers reckon, they continue to exploit the human resource of the country.

Everyone should get paid for their work, if it is an internship or job. Ethics is screaming out loud to become a Law when it comes to unpaid work.


What is your view on unpaid internships and jobs? Would you do one just to gain experience?

cyber-security organisations.

Under section 43 of IT act 2000, hacking is a punishable act with imprisonment up to 3 years and fine up to 2 lakh rupees. But it seems not enough to prevent hackers from committing crime.





These hackers are untraceable and do their work with so much sophistication, they leave no clue behind for the cyber police to find them.Internet is a virtual world where one can imitate, duplicate, escape easily.


Introduction of new forms of money is only creating new ways for hackers to steal money.In year 2018, $1.1 billion was stolen from Crypto-currencies only.






Unethical hacking is a crime in any part of the world. Law also supports the opposition of unethical hacking. The culprits should be imprisoned for the unethical activity depending upon the amount of damage caused to the society.


Government Cyber security agencies should also try to versatile themselves to reach the Hackers.

↪Before we start there is a need to understand what exactly ethical and unethical means:-

"The branch of knowledge that deals with the moral principles according to which a person should or may lead their life becomes known as ethical. On the other hand, something that does not get considered as right in the society or an act that may create confrontation among people becomes known as unethical".

Here we will discuss about the ethical and unethical Behaviour in organization.

Ethical Behaviour Within the Organization:-

Ethical behaviour is behaviour that is appropriate. It is based on morals. Ethical behaviour is the right way to behave. It is choosing the right and good. Ethical behaviour is when someone is being on his or her best behaviour. All of their actions and words are following good moral principles.

People enjoy being around others who have a good ethical behaviour. It is the behaviour that is morally accepted as ‘good’, ‘right’ in a particular setting. Ethical behaviour refers to that conduct that is beyond reproach and is in accordance to the laid down standards of a society, organization or institution.

This refers to conduct that organizations expect their employees to hold while at work. Most organizations have formulated documents referred to as ‘codes of conduct’, that set out the accepted behaviours within the work place.

They have set out the rules and regulations that need to be adhered to by those in their employ. This is mainly because an individual’s conduct can affect the relationships within an organization, thereby taking a negative toll on the overall performance of an organization.

Unethical Behaviour Within the Organization:-

Unethical behaviour is any action that is aimed at taking advantage of another without their knowledge or consent. It can also be defined as manipulating someone without his or her permission.

Unethical behaviour is a way of acting that society disapproves of. It is the behaviour that is ‘bad’; ‘wrong’ in a particular setting. Profuse languages, acting violent towards others are some examples of unethical behaviour.

Examples of Unethical Behaviour in Organization:-

Unethical behaviour in the workplace can take many forms.

Some of the examples are:-

a. Crossing Sexual Boundaries and Harassment

b. Others may misrepresent themselves as a way to convince others to buy a product or service that they are selling.


c. Others may lie about their expenses in order to get a larger reimburse­ment check.

d. Theft of Time and Materials

e. Failure to Maintain a Safe Workplace

Effects of Unethical Behaviour:-

Unethical behaviour on the part of the company and its management creates a situation where employees feel ashamed or embarrassed by their company, its product or service, or their role in it. It is as if they are doing something wrong by association. These feelings breed mistrust and low morale.

Unethical behaviour by fellow employees, especially if it goes unpunished or is condoned by management, prevents cooperation and trust among employees, which also creates low morale. This negative effect is magnified if the unethical behaviour by the company or employees results in harm to others.
