Tarihsel Perspektiften İş Etiği ve Etik Eğitiminin Rolü

Abstract

İş dünyasında etik konusunda uygulama ve tartışmalar sömürgecilik dönemlerinden beri süregelmektedir. Sosyal açıdan sorumlu davranışın organizasyonun kar artırma amacına ters düşüp düşmediği hususunda pek çok araştırma yapılmıştır. Birçok çalışma kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk ve etik davranışın firmanın rekabet avantajı ve pazar payı artışına da katkı yaptığını göstermektedir. Bu çalışma sosyal sorumluluk ve iş ahlakının gelişimini sömürgecilik dönemlerinden incelemeye başlayarak günümüz kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk ve iş ahlakını aydınlatmaya çalışacaktır. Literatür taraması ayrıca etik konusunda eğitim programlarının çalışan davranışına etkilerine daha önce yapılmış çalışmaları inceleyerek yer vermiştir
