Explanation

Ethics in the workplace refers to a framework of moral principles that guide behavior and decision-making. The passage mentions 'right conduct' and 'basic moral values,' which directly corresponds to 'principles' - fundamental rules or beliefs that guide conduct. Principles provide the systematic structure for ethical behavior, whereas restrictions limit actions, aims are goals, and beliefs are general convictions without the guiding structure.
