Ethics at Work: a national survey


New IBE Publication available from 27th June 2005

What do UK employees consider to be the standard of ethical conduct in their workplace?

This report by Simon Webley and Polly Dryden details the first national IBE Ethics at Work Survey. It:

  • shows how fulltime staff and management regard their own behavior and that of their colleagues
  • makes comparisons with Management Today/KPMG Forensic survey of managers in 2000 and a US ERC employee survey in 2003
  • presents the views of workers on the support they are given in 'doing the right thing' at work
  • suggests which employees are likely to be 'the most ethical'
  • demonstrates to all employers, the benefit of surveying their staff on ethical issues and conduct, and the need for clearer ethical guidance.
