Principle of equity is important.

Answer: Yes, the principle of equity is important because fair and kind treatment of employees wins their loyalty and devotion.

• There should be no discrimination on the basis of caste, religion, sex, language or region. Rules should apply equally to all.

• Equity combined with justice improves morale and efficiency.

Thus, the principle of equity is important.
