Abstract
In this paper I intend to create an analogy between the workplace and society in general, so that principles used in determining political and social systems of ethics in the social sphere might be applied to the work place. I will specifically focus in on John Rawls's theory of justice as fairness, as it is explained in his book A Theory of Justice. The reason I have chosen this theory is because of its popularity, inherent quality, and applicability to the workplace setting. It is also a moderately recent work which takes into account many modern social and political concerns. This theory I then apply to three important workplace issues: for the benefit of employees, freedom of speech and employee privacy, and for the benefit of employers, productivity.
