BUSINESS ETHICS INITIATIVE LAUNCHED
To what extent does the collapse of companies such as HIH or One-Tel or the rorting of the salary cap by professional football clubs in Australia represent the erosion of ethical standards of behaviour in the business world? Does the apparent retreat from ethical behaviour in the corporate and government sector just mirror what is happening more broadly in society and in the world?
What is legal? What is ethical? What is the difference?
The Edmund Rice Centre in Homebush has recently launched a monthly electronic publication Good Business where questions such as this can be considered.
The publication is part of the Edmund Rice Business Ethics Initiative, launched in 1991, which exists to promote a conversation between business and the community on values and ethics: promoting life humanly in our businesses, our communities, our planet. It aims to create a space where these issues can be discussed and researched in mutually supportive ways
