The main purpose of this paper is exploring ways to manage business ethics effectively. To achieve this, first of all, the paper reviews the concepts and importance of business ethics together with its components, such as corporate ethics codes and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Next, five ways to manage business ethics efficiently are revealed. Based on these suggested ways, the paper recommends four practical actions for managers to have good management skills in this field. These recommendations are setting up an effective corporate ethics code, acting and behaving ethically in any circumstances, setting up rules and regulations, and advancing CSR in a very wise way. The paper concludes with two issues for future researchers: whether corporations need a business ethics manager/ specialist, and how companies motivate their employees to act ethically

Moral confusion in business ethics and corporate social responsibility often stems from treating ethics and law as if they were the same. Ethics and the law often overlap and sometimes conflict. They are distinct categories. Laws may enforce people’s ethical obligations. But they may also contravene them and require unethical action. Because the law has no independent moral authority, business people are always required to ask themselves whether compliance with the law is the right course of action. When the law prescribes oppressive or unjust conduct, they may have an ethical duty not to obey the law.
