Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: The rapid development in the field of information technology has provided significant benefits to both society and the business world. There are numerous ethical challenges that computer users must deal with. These include violation of intellectual property, hacking, invasion of privacy, honesty, secrecy, loyalty, accountability, and responsibility. Situational and individual characteristics influence information systems employees' behavioral intentions to act ethically. The situational variables that affect employee ethical behavior and financial losses can be controlled and influenced by organizations to determine and control employee ethical conduct and financial losses. Ethics-related losses caused by information systems employees can be successfully resolved by incorporating the code of ethics into the code of professional conduct and employee contract, incorporating ethics into organizational culture, designing rewards for ethical behavior and severe punishments for unethical behavior, and incorporating ethics into the code of professional conduct and employee contract.
