Social responsibility - Managers Ethics


Ethics (from the Greek word ethos - custom, habit .....) - philosophical discipline, which deals with the behavior of people, setting the rules of moral conduct, which is called the Code of Ethics. Basic social values and norms are: human dignity, justice, honesty ...
                                    
Cases of unethical behavior are ubiquitous, and affect all spheres of our lives. In fact we are already accustomed to such information were to come from insurance companies in terms of "moral hazard", default services, finished goods, not to pay salaries to workers, cut accounts payable ..... domino effect that is transferred to the other layers of the business environment, and may result in insolvency or bankruptcy of enterprises, craft or any type of business entity.
                                                                        
The daily task of reading II will describe one of many examples, unfortunately, that is happening around us in this case in a business environment cake factory one Croatian company. So I will present an example which I recently learned from his friends, and how to engage a little journalism, especially the issue interested me, and I want to present it this way.

Event Content: cake factory company is well known in Croatia, whose cakes are on the shelves of our supermarket, small shop, confectionery, has 140 employees, good web site, and how not to, because when you want to open a cube or a bohemian kind of attractive fruit cake. I'm not such kind of cake lover, I'm sorry that fruit that destroys the white powder Bulk sweet taste, which has its own raw nutritional values for the human body. I visited the site purely out of curiosity and to inform the company's business image, not bad I would, however, the story goes like this and turns in the case.
                                                                 
Colleague, a young economist, son of my friend I'll call him Zvonimir, not to be too personal, job as a sales representative in the company, and acquired after practice, he became a mentor of young future employee representatives. When the youngster (son of the owner of the company bearing the same name), overcome the default and the expected superior work skills, mentor (Zvonimir) got "fired" and paid no wages earned, and his employer offered to pay compensation for the cake, then "sweet compensation" .

So let Zvonimir went to pay the current HEP and cakes, or buy fuel for cakes????.

Realistically looking at this unenviable situation, which was struck Zvonimir, and should not be this might happen, that the owners are not stisnule some situations related to customers that the goods are not paid on time, or it does not pay, which is manifest in organizational decision owner companies that have him at the time seemed most acceptable. Through a graphical representation of the business environment are influential factors from the external business environment, ie in this case, customers who are not paid for the goods or service, then suppliers who did not want to deliver the goods due to inability to settle obligations of the owner, this time as well as in many cases known to us in our economy occurred in the "domino effect". The case of chance and there is so tragic ending, because Zvonimir your sweet compensation for the use of his prior marriage.

Comment: in this case, it is clear to conclude that external factors in the business environment affect the internal stakelholdere or owners and employees, and so my attitude their behavior caused by unethical conduct by employees of the owner. Ethical responsibility includes behaviors that are not necessarily codified into law and may not serve the economic interests of the company direct.
                         
"To be ethical, decision-makers in the company to act fairly, honestly and respecting the rights of individuals, and to him that nothing ensure proper treatment when it is important to the objectives and tasks of the company. Unethical behavior occurs when the decision allows an individual or company that works to the detriment of society.
