A strong ethical culture is the key to any organization’s long-term success. The purpose of this research was to investigate the link between an organization’s ethical culture and its effect on workers’ well-being, as well as to test the construct validity of the Corporate Virtue Scale (CEV). In South Africa’s Buffalo Municipality, 277 managers from different government agencies made up the sample. The eight-factor CEV scale was validated through a confirmatory factor analysis. Employees’ stress and emotional exhaustion were linked to their views on the prevalence of an ethical culture in public agencies. The results of this study show that an organization’s ethical culture significantly affects its employees’ quality of life on the job. The CEV scale was found to have construct validity, proving its reliability and validity in practice. The government is urged to prioritize the streamlining of regulations and processes that foster an ethical culture in public institutions.
The goal of this paper is to determine how widespread the presence of a code of ethics is and the possible relationship between the presence of a code of ethics in Czech companies and the positive economic results of those companies over the last five years. The number of companies that are introducing ethical management continues to grow globally, including in the Czech Republic. A code of ethics is a tool with which to determine the ethical infrastructure of a company, as well as manage it. However, expert opinions on the possible economic impact of ethical management differ considerably. A statistical analysis of the results obtained from a questionnaire survey conducted among a sample of 297 companies showed that the presence of a code of ethics, or a lack thereof, has no demonstrable impact on the economic results of a company regardless of its size.
The purpose of this article is to present the correlation between management of an economic entity and the development of ethical accounting dilemmas in the era of high-risk business. In the globalisation era and recurring economic crises, realisation of the objectives of a company takes place under high risk conditions. It is therefore necessary to use a proper management system. The necessary condition for making all decisions is to have relevant information. The value and relevance of these decisions depend on the quality of information which they have been based on. Lack of ethics in accounting has a direct impact on the company's management, which is based on information generated by the accounting system of the company. Ethical dilemmas arising in accounting are also ethical dilemmas arising in the process of business management.
Warto podjąć próbę zmierzenia się z rzeczywistością w kontekście realiów przyjętych norm etycznych i ekologicznych biorąc pod uwagę wyposażenie nauczyciela w nowy profil kwalifikacji zawodowych. Obecne wyzwania, które zostają skutecznie wdrażane w edukację, budzą obawy przed potencjalnym zagrożeniem, ale też wyzwalają pewne nadzieje. Daje się zaobserwować, że ówczesna praca pedagogiczna instrumentalizuje często młodego człowieka, stawiającego pierwsze kroki w roli nauczyciela–przedmiotowca, wychowawcy, do osiągnięcia konkretnych celów politycznych, ekonomicznych oraz pełnienia specjalnych wytyczonych zadań.

It is worth a while to consider the reality of being a teacher in light of accepted ethical and ecological standards, while taking into account new professional qualifications of a teacher. The current challenges that are becoming a vital part of education are at the same time worrisome and a source of hope. It can be observed that the previous pedagogical work often instrumentalizes a young person, who begins his work as a teacher, so as to achieve political and economic objectives, and to perform specific fixed tasks.

The author of the article discusses two figures of a politician emerging from two political discourses present since 1989 — ethical (in its two varieties: “romantic” and “socialist”) and pragmatic. The “missionary” politician, who is a central figure of the ethical discourse, frames reality in terms of ethical categories, applying them to spiritual matters (the “romantic” variety — the politician is a “guide”) or those relating to everyday life (the “socialist” variety – the politician is the “father of the nation”). The “ethical missionary” places himself above “ordinary people”, treated as passive and having a sense of entitlement. The “professional” politician — the main figure in the pragmatic discourse — describes the world from an economic perspective. He does not rise above the community to which his message is addressed, but tries to become united with it, expecting it at least to be active, if not make an effort in the pursuit of common objectives.
