Legal And Ethical Issues Associated With Employee Use Of Social Networks, Gundars Kaupins, Susan Park Dec 2014

Legal And Ethical Issues Associated With Employee Use Of Social Networks, Gundars Kaupins, Susan Park

Susan Park

Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter can help employees enhance a company’s marketing, recruiting, security, and safety. However, employee’s use of social networking sites and employers’ access of those sites can result in illegal and unethical behavior, such as discrimination and privacy invasions. Companies must gauge whether and how to rely upon employees’ use of personal social networking sites and how much freedom employees should have in using networks inside and outside of the companies. This research summarizes the latest legal and ethical issues regarding employee use of social networks and provides recommended corporate policies.

Individual Moral Development And Ethical Climate: The Influence Of Person-Organization Fit On Job Attitudes, Maureen L. Ambrose, Anke Arnaud, Marshall Schminke Aug 2014

Individual Moral Development And Ethical Climate: The Influence Of Person-Organization Fit On Job Attitudes, Maureen L. Ambrose, Anke Arnaud, Marshall Schminke

Dr. Anke Arnaud

This research examines how the fit between employees’ moral development and the ethical work climate of their organization affects employee attitudes. Person–organization fit was assessed by matching individuals’ level of cognitive moral development with the ethical climate of their organization. The influence of P–O fit on employee attitudes was assessed using a sample of 304 individuals from 73 organizations. In general, the findings support our predictions that fit between personal and organizational ethics is related to higher levels of commitment and job satisfaction and lower levels of turnover intent. Ethical P–O fit was related to higher levels of affective commitment …

Planificación Sucesoria Y Patrimonial En La Empresa Familiar, Carlos Molina Sandoval Jan 2014

Planificación Sucesoria Y Patrimonial En La Empresa Familiar, Carlos Molina Sandoval

Carlos Molina Sandoval

Una de las causas de la desaparición de un número importante de empresas familiares se vincula con las dificultades en la sucesión familiar y en la toma de ciertas decisiones por parte del fundador y sus sucesores. Se trata de una decisión que toda empresa familiar, tarde o temprano, debe enfrentar si es que la empresa tiene vocación de continuidad más allá del fundador y que los sucesores deberán afrontar en un futuro (aun cuando se haya hecho sin la planificación adecuada). El proceso de sucesión, tanto en la propiedad como en la gestión de la empresa familiar, origina sus …


The Great Leap Forward That Never Was, Uwe Muegge Jan 2014

The Great Leap Forward That Never Was, Uwe Muegge

Uwe Muegge

Ten years ago, machine translation (MT) was very much a niche technology for translation professionals. MT tools were expensive, supported only a small number of language pairs, and did not play nice with many standard translation tools. Today, MT is available either for free or at very low cost, in thousands of language combinations, and many translation memory systems offer integrated MT functionality. In other words, MT has evolved by leaps and bounds. As the number of translation professionals who post-edit raw MT has increased dramatically over the past 10 years, the big question is whether developments in post-editing have …

The Things That Go Without Saying. On Performative Differences Between Business Value Communication And Communication On Business Values, Steffen Roth Jan 2014

The Things That Go Without Saying. On Performative Differences Between Business Value Communication And Communication On Business Values, Steffen Roth

Dr. Steffen Roth

This article argues that analyses of value semantics in organisational image brochures, websites, and further official documents do not give information about an organisation’s ethical performance. Based on a systems theoretical definition of values, the case is made for a distinction of communication on values and value communication, the latter of which is defined as implicit form of communication. This distinction is illustrated by examples of personal and organisational value communication at Coca Cola France, Marriott Belgium, Accenture India, and two French retailers as well as a contrastive discussion of the CSR activities of Grünenthal GmbH and Coca Cola Hellenic …
