If an organization follows the advice from the Institute of Business Ethics, it would determine the topics on which employees require guidance before drafting the code of ethics. This ensures that the code is relevant to the organization's specific context and addresses the key ethical issues facing the employees. Option A is incorrect because following a well-tested model from the Institute of Business Ethics would be beneficial in creating an effective code of ethics. Option B is incorrect because simply putting the code on the organization's website would not ensure its implementation, and sending it to all employees, suppliers, and others is important for everyone to know the code. Option C is incorrect because while conducting an extensive survey is a good idea, getting endorsement from the board for the code of ethics is also important.
