>>I stand firmly by my position that **ALL** humanity, in **EVERY** endeavour, is **EXPECTED** to put morality/ethics at the very **TOP** of their agenda. It doesn't matter if it is a corporate decision or a personal decision. Business has NOT been conferred special rights or privileges in society as regards ethics.

No I can't, nor do I have to! I EXPECT ***YOU*** place ethic/morals highly but I don't expect that you go around reminding me or anyone else of that fact. The same goes for me and the same goes for everyone everywhere.
That one is working at a business does NOT exempt them from making ethical/moral decisions while at work.
The fact of the matter is that virtually everything DEPENDS ON everyone placing ethics/morals at the top of their list. We have police and regulators who address those who do not.
Many companies, a while back, got big into the "Company Charter" stuff and I can assure you that every one that I have read - possible a dozen or so - mentioned legal/ethical/moral in more than 1 place in that charter.
You are not alone - many (way too many) people seem to give business an exemption from ethics/morals, reasoning, I suppose, that their mandates for profit supercede ethic and morality. Such logic is flawed in the extreme.
