What can we learn from the U.s. Federal sentencing guidelines for organizational ethics
Journal of Business Ethics 17 (9-10):1045-1055 (1998)
| Abstract | In November, 1991, the U.S. Congress enacted the U.S. Federal Sentencing Guidelines legislation which had a dramatic impact on corporate America. Can the Guidelines be used as a model or framework by other countries? Could other countries in the world benefit from adopting a similar piece of legislation? Are there any limitations to consider? In addressing these issues, the authors make the argument that the time has arrived for other countries to consider the development of legislation similar to the Guidelines in order to improve organizational ethics. | |||||||||
