I REALLY DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THIS.

ACCORDING TO THE PROTESTANT WORK ETHIC WHICH AFFECTS CANADIAN SOCIETY EVEN TODAY, ONE GAINS VIRTUE BY WORKING HARD. WHY WOULD BUSINESS PEOPLE AGREE WITH THIS IDEA?

Check this site.

Also -- do not use all capitals. It's considered SHOUTING.

oh sorry for the capitals, but really i wasn't shouting

yeah but i really don't know what the question is asking for. could u please explain

The question asks:

Considering the Protestant work ethic, one gains one virtue by working hard.

Why would business people want their employees to work hard?

would this be right.. because the business people want their employees to reach to a higher professional level

Why do the employers what their employees reach a higher level? How does that help the business?

would this be right.. the employers want their employees to reach a higher level because then they know that it won't be difficult for their employees to manage diificult things in the upcoming future. That helps business by it makes it more organized and I don't know why else

When employees work hard, they bring more money and more business into the company.

thanx, but how would i respond to this question. why would business people agree with this idea.

Sorry to jump in, because I find it a very interesting topic.

Elina, if you put yourself in the shoes of a headmaster (owner) of a school (business). Wouldn't you be grateful if the teachers (employees) work hard, motivate students, have good results in public exams, help students with their homework, etc. Would you agree to an idea that encourages this practice? Do you see any setbacks?
