Character Counts Pillar For The Month: Fairness.

What Is Fairness?
•Fairness implies that each one of us should follow
a standard of rightness without regard to our own
personal feelings or inclinations.
•Fairness implies freedom from prejudice.
•Fairness also implies impartiality about any side.
•The moral obligations of fairness are almost always
associated with the exercise of a person’s power to
render judgments that give benefits to or impose
burdens on other persons.
Fairness is concerned with actions, processes,
and consequences that are morally right,
honorable, and equitable.
In essence, fairness establishes moral standards
for decisions that affect others.
Fair decisions are made in an appropriate manner,
based on appropriate criteria.
The Principles of Fairness
•Treat all people in a fair, just, and impartial way,
based on their merits and abilities.
•Handle all essentially similar situations consistently.
•Make all decisions on appropriate criteria, without
undue favoritism or improper prejudice.
•Promptly and voluntarily correct personal and
institutional mistakes and improprieties.
•Do not take unfair advantage of people’s mistakes
or ignorance.
•Fully consider the rights, interests, and perspectives
of all persons involved or affected.
