Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄應用科技大學 === 工業工程與管理系碩士班 === 95 === The morality of employees is a key factor that affects the competitiveness and operation performance of an enterprise. This study discusses about employee ethical indicators in financial, high-tech, and traditional industries, and come up with six aspects of employee ethics which include business trade secret, benefit avoiding, loyalty, responsibility, integrity, and private ethics for the basic evaluation of employee ethics. During the research, certain statistical methodologies such as MANOVA and Scheffe Multiple Comparison are used to analyze the difference on perspective of employee morality and ethical requirement in different industries. The results show that employee morality in financial industry has greater influence on enterprise competitiveness and reputation than the other two industries have. Ethically, traditional industry focuses more on securing business trade secrets and loyalty than the other two industries do. Meanwhile, responsibility is given higher values in financial industry than in the high-tech industry. All three industries emphasize benefit avoiding and integrity. While private ethics is not considered to be important in all three industries. Furthermore, by conducting canonical correlation analysis on certain highly-focused employee morality issues; it can be concluded that (1) managers who focus on employee responsibility and benefit avoiding consider employee morality would affect enterprise competitiveness and reputation, and the importance of morality is even greater than professional skills. (2) Responsibility and integrity are the main ethical indicators that affect the hiring in management level and employee promotion. This research uses multiple regression analysis to further understand the regression indicators of employee morality and the influence of ethical issues. In summary, it suggests that enterprises should establish restrictive employee behavioral guidelines which specifically state the enterprise value and ethical requirements in order that all employees can follow accordingly. At the same time, certain systematic evaluation and reward programs should be created to reduce corporation loss and social instability resulted by employee immorality.
