Answer: The correct answer is "You can rely on the legal system to manage or assure ethical conduct at work.".

Explanation: The statement "You can rely on the legal system to manage or assure ethical conduct at work." is FALSE, because the legal system cannot be trusted to manage or ensure ethical conduct at work, since many unethical conduct is not illegal and cannot be punished despite the fact that it is not recommended and inconvenient and is not ethical.
