Abstract
Statements of corporate values and ethics have been popular for decades. Organizations also have increasingly asked employees to sign ethics statements to confirm their agreement with core values. Recent well-publicized corporate malfeasance has drawn attention to whether these tools are effective or are true reflections of an organization’s principles and values. Corporate ethical values (CEVs) can be viewed outside the realm of organizational training, standard operating procedures, reward and punishment systems, formal statements, and as more representative of the real nature of the organization (Organ, 1988). CEVs steer the organization’s approach for taking action related to stakeholder groups, including customers, competitors, channel partners, employees, and society in general (Hunt, Wood and, Chonko, 1989). CEVs may be viewed as an organization’s true values, as perceived by employees and other relevant stakeholders.KeywordsOrganizational CommitmentEmployee OutcomeOrganizational JusticeTrue ReflectionPerceive FairnessThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
