Introduction The purpose of this study is to assist programmers in making ethically good decisions when faced with external pressures that may lead them to act differently. The ACM code of ethics promotes the implementation of employee incentive programmes inside software development organisations as a means to enhance employee satisfaction and exert a positive impact on the workforce. Discussion The ethical standards of those employed in software development companies would be adversely affected as a consequence. The use of ethical guidelines facilitates the prevention of unethical behaviours among employees, while simultaneously fostering moral introspection and individual development within the professional setting. Ultimately, the objective is to enhance individuals' awareness of the gravity of unethical software development practises. The objective is to render unethical approaches to software development economically and ethically impractical ( McNamara et al. 2018, p11 (1)). Taking into account the financial implications and possible benefits of participating in a morally questionable conduct might assist an individual in arriving at a well-informed determination. The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) has developed a set of ethics standards; however, there is little evidence to indicate their impact on the integration of ethical issues into software development. The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) has dedicated significant time and effort to ensure that ethical responsibility serves as a deterrent against unethical conduct in software development ( Johnson & J Smith 2021, p2 (2)). Conclusion This report concluded that this revelation represents a significant setback. Nevertheless, the occurrence of failure does not inherently indicate a dearth of evidence establishing a connection between decision-making and ethical principles. It would be erroneous to assert that the moral imperative lacks legitimacy due to the convergence of both arguments. 3 | P a g e
