University of Hull - A question of ethics

A Centre for Organisational Ethics has opened as part of a reorganisation of a business school's research centres. The centre at Hull University Business School will investigate topics such as organisational trust, fraud, environmental issues and media ethics. The centre's leader, Alan Lawton, said: "The impact of this ethical evaluation, whether in the form of individual behaviours, governance arrangements, corporate social responsibility or social audit, is a significant consideration when creating strategy and our research will be an important source of information in this area."
