Care and Justice Orientations in Workplace Ethical Dilemmas of Women Business Owners
研究了女性企业主在解决职场伦理困境时使用的公正与关怀道德取向,以及财务后果对伦理思考的影响。发现她们主要采用公正伦理,尤其在面临重大财务后果时。
In this study, the authors examine the justice and care moral orientations that women business owners employ when resolving important workplace dilemmas and the influence of material financial consequence from these dilemmas on their ethical deliberations. The findings indicate that women business owners predominantly use an ethic of justice in addressing workplace ethical dilemmas, especially when significant financial consequence to the business is perceived to stem from the workplace dilemma. Implications of the study are drawn for extant knowledge and future research on women’s use of moral orientations.
