It is a curious fact that the current surge of interest in business ethics has largely bypassed the theory and the practice of human resource management (HRM).While business as a whole is presenting itself more and more in terms of social responsibility, and employees are routinely accepted as crucial stake- holders in most business organizations, HRM practice continues to affirm its significance for corporate profitability and prefers to distance itself from its traditional welfare image. It is, therefore, timely to revisit the subject of ethics in employment with respect to HRM, and to do so in a way that brings out the complexity of articulating a conception of ethical HRM that goes beyond a shaky affirmation that ‘good ethics is always good for business’. click here to download the book
