| Abstract: | Organizations have distinct types of ethical climates and there is variance in the ethical climate within organizations by position, tenure, and workgroup membership. Five dimensions of ethical climate are described: law and code, caring, instrumentalism, independence, and rules. Significant differences are revealed in ethical climates both across and within firms. The sociocultural environment, organizational form, and organization history are determinants of the ethical climates in organizations. The implications of ethical climate for organizational theory are also discussed. |
