I believe the previous answer refers to ‘ethNics’ rather than addressing your question…
An ETHICAL person is a very relativistic term. Merriam – Webster defines it as, “[One who] conforms to accepted standards of conduct.” But when looking up just Ethics, the definition refers to ANY set of moral principles or theory of moral behavior; but what is right or wrong is determined by an individual or society. It may be different here in the U.S. from an isolated indigenous society deep in the Amazonian rain forest.
So to make a long-winded answer short, an ethical person is one who has defined for themselves a set of moral principles (this is right and that is wrong) and who manages to diligently adhere to those definitions without compromise.
