Business ethics is a vital approach for the development, well-being of organizations and societies. The well-established scale of Attitude towards Business Ethics Questionnaire (ATBEQ) was adopted. A random sample (30 organizations) was taken from the whole population (Pakistan). The result indicates that the private sectors have more optimistic attitude towards business ethics as compared to public sector. Similarities and differences were discussed within the same sectors as well as others. Recommendations for public sector must reform the unethical business practice that breed cynicism and distrust in communities. The nature of this research is descriptive and the method used is a cross-sectional survey. Future researches should be conducted within individual organization by using different questionnaire techniques. The sample was restricted within public and private sector in Pakistan to assess the behavior of employees.
