| Tiivistelmä: | This paper illustrates how a middle manager interprets the action of two employees as problematic and how he solves it by using the company's code of ethics as the basis for firing them. A darker side of codes is revealed and it is conceptualized in terms of power and domination. The paper contributes to the corporate codes of ethics (CCEs) and corporate ethics programs by showing that such codes need not necessarily play an enabling role in organizations. Rather than being instruments of enlightment and self-regulation, they may be used as instruments to further domination. |
