- using abusive or profane language,
- having a disrespectful attitude,
- threatening or intimidating colleagues or customers,
- making false public statements against a supervisor, and
- assaulting a person.

The U.S. Department of Labor has launched a new initiative that would require nearly every U.S. business to proactively demonstrate compliance with safety laws, wage laws, and anti-discrimination laws. This program, known as "Plan/Prevent/Protect" (also known informally as "P-Cubed" or "P3"), results from the fact that the DOL is overwhelmed and understaffed. Because of this, the DOL has decided to shift some of their policing duties onto the private sector. Once implemented, P3 will require every entity covered by the FLSA, OSHA, the OFFCP, and MSHA to make written plans ("Plan"), create processes ("Prevent"), and test the processes with designated compliance employees ("Protect").

Unfortunately, many companies with small HR departments, or none at all, tend to overlook ethics as part of their HR procedures and policies.

In addition to stress, anxiety and depression, these problems can include:
• marital problems, domestic violence, divorce, child care, and elder care;
• legal and financial concerns;
