Unit Description

This unit focuses on the role of ethics in organisations. It introduces the conceptual and analytical skills required to identify and evaluate the ethical dimension of business activites in specific areas such as human resource management, marketing, accounting and international business. The question of how ethics might be managed effectively within organisations is also canvassed. The unit does not aim to provide conclusive answers to a set of ethical questions, rather, it aims to introduce a way of thinking and talking about ethical issues in an organisational context.
