title: Good ethical tone in the work setting.
abstract: Speech-language pathologists report a broad range of situations that they believe represent professional dilemmas. Some arise in their employment settings because of mandates and employment-related policies established by their employers, supervisors, and administrators. Their reports do not as often reflect the many instances where ethical problems associated with the workplace may occur because of the conduct and actions of speech-language pathologists themselves. The purpose of this article is to identify and discuss some common quandaries speech-language pathologists and their employers may experience that are associated with workplace-related matters.
