Here is a short introduction about the theme:

Ancient Greek philosophers talked about it, religions find their foundation in it and today's so-called Wokism is all about it: Ethics. What are the criteria for right and wrong? The key question in jurisprudence. However, not only of importance for this scientific discipline. Ethics is equally relevant to Actuarial Science. For actuaries, ethics involves independence, integrity and the duty of care towards clients. Think of the additional social responsibility, ethical use of data and respect for norms and values.

Within companies, the focus is more on ethical collaboration among themselves. Relationships between colleagues, managers and customers.
Taboo-breaking discussions about boundaries of what is permissible: what is permissible and what is not? What to do when a line is crossed? Are there grey areas?

In short, the subject of 'Ethics' is very broad and involves subjectivity. With that, it is important that it is well thought out and communicated. The possible angles you consider important as a company can be shared and/or debated. It is also instructive because of the concrete situations that participants can take along in their professional development.
