How to standardize enterprise ethics

There are various ethical problems in the legal operation and management of enterprises. The solution of these problems needs to be completed by strengthening the construction of enterprise ethics, and it is necessary to test them from both inside and outside the enterprise at the same time in order to be more comprehensive and thorough. Within the enterprise, enterprise managers should clarify some vague and mistaken ideas, fully realize the dialectical relationship between building houses with morality and profits, and carefully handle the relationship between interests and morality related to the survival and development of enterprises. At the same time, enterprises should strengthen moral education for employees and improve their moral realm. Strengthen social supervision and restrain enterprise behavior. As a member of society, enterprises are also subject to social supervision. The supervision of enterprises should be all-round supervision, which can be considered from three aspects: legal supervision, environmental supervision and self-supervision. As a compulsory means of the state, legal means have supreme authority. Promoting moral construction by means of legal supervision can first improve the authority of morality. Morality is only a soft constraint on human behavior (including enterprise behavior). Only by raising some moral concepts into laws and relying on the coercive power of the state can they be universally recognized by the society, improve their authority and become the principle recognized by all members of society. Secondly, it can enhance the standardization of morality. Morality has obvious social effect, which is not only an abstract principle, but also must be transformed into a concrete and clear code of conduct. The formulation of legal provisions has institutionalized some moral requirements and made them have rules to follow. Specific restrictions on corporate behavior through legal forms can also regulate their behavior. Third, moral supervision can be strengthened. Morality is characterized by promoting good, but punishing evil is also an indispensable aspect. Legal supervision characterized by compulsion is a more severe means to treat malignant diseases. Supervising the behavior of enterprises will definitely deter all kinds of unethical behaviors. Legal supervision means can forcibly determine the value orientation of enterprise behavior and help to quickly reverse the state of enterprise behavior anomie.

Environmental supervision is an indispensable means to test whether enterprises fulfill their moral obligations. If the moral environment is too loose and not binding, it is not conducive to the implementation of moral behavior. Strict environmental supervision can nip in the bud, always supervise enterprises to abandon evil and do good, and accelerate the improvement of moral atmosphere. Environmental supervision includes three ways: first, communication supervision, that is, the mass media praise the good behavior of enterprises and condemn the bad behavior. This kind of supervision will undoubtedly have a great public opinion effect, which will make the society respect the good people and the despised wicked people, thus reminding enterprises to check their behavior from time to time. Second, interpersonal supervision. With the increase and change of moral environment space, the mobility and strangeness of interpersonal relationships within enterprises also increase accordingly, so it is necessary to strengthen interpersonal supervision. At present, the range of competitors, partners and customers of enterprises is getting wider and wider, and the behavior of enterprises is becoming more and more socialized. Only through mutual supervision can the behavior of enterprises further conform to ethical norms, which is conducive to expanding exchanges between enterprises and maintaining the normal order of social life. Third, organize supervision. Through the establishment of certain organizations (such as government, industry and non-government) to supervise corporate fans in an all-round way, the immoral behavior of enterprises has nowhere to hide, thus effectively promoting the improvement of daily behavior of enterprises. Moral industry ultimately depends on specific personal behavior. If an individual's moral behavior is completed under supervision and coercion, it is not a real moral behavior. The basis of morality is the self-discipline of human spirit. Every moral subject needs to demand internal moral obligations from social moral requirements, and guide his social behavior with sound morality, so as to reach the realm of free will without crossing the line. Among them, the improvement of moral awareness, the cultivation of moral emotion, the tempering of moral will and the accumulation of moral accomplishment are all very important, and self-supervision is an indispensable link throughout them. Only under the constant self-comparison, self-reflection, prompting and supervision can enterprises continuously improve their moral realm and become individuals with high moral consciousness. From 65438 to 0994, the CAUX Round Table Business Principles adopted by business leaders from the United States, Japan and Europe in Switzerland provided the basic principles of business ethics for business operations. The CAUX Roundtable held that the business activities of enterprises should be based on the ethical concepts of "* * * life" and "human dignity", and this basic ethical concept should be universally respected and strictly observed by all enterprises. "* * life" refers to living and working together for the benefit and happiness of all mankind, so that mutual cooperation, * * survival, * * honor and fair competition coexist; "Human dignity" refers to taking the sanctity and true value of individuals as the ultimate goal, rather than simply as a means to achieve other people's goals or get more than half of the votes, that is, to achieve real "humanization".
