Abstract: There is a lot of literature on the importance of ethics and trust. Ethics has been found to be closely related with trust because it has been agreed by many researchers that in order to develop trust, behaviour must be ethical The present research aims to study the effect of ethics on trust and mutual assistance. The research was conducted by distributing questionnaires among the employees of different organizations in different sectors. Analyses indicated that people trust individuals exhibiting ethical behaviour more than individuals exhibiting neutral behaviours; but there would be no difference in giving and taking assistance to and from people exhibiting ethical or neutral behaviour.
