Abstract:
This paper aims to identify the impact of job ethics implementing its
principles (Lows respective, Justice and Impartiality, Integrity, Transparency,
Objectivity) on the commitment to social responsibility, in Arabian Gulf Oil
Company (AGOCO) from managers’ points of view. Adopting the quantitative
method and using the questionnaire on 112 managers, the findings revealed that
the level of job ethic and social responsibility was at a medium level. Also, a
significant relationship between three principals of job ethic (i.e., Lows
respective, Integrity, Transparency) and the social responsibility commitment was
identified. However, the analysis showed that there was no significant impact
between Justice and impartiality as well as Objectivity on the social responsibility.
Some recommendations are presented by this paper. AGOCO should be highly
concerned with concepts and practices of job ethics and social responsibility,
especially at the level of company’s leaders.
