This study not only examines the intermediating process of the association between ethical leadership and safety behavior, but also tries to find a factor which moderates the positive influence of ethical leadership. To achieve it, this paper tried to identify the mediating effect of employee's psychological safety between ethical leadership and safety behavior, as well as the moderating influence of moral identity in the ethical leadership-psychological safety link. By utilizing 3-wave survey data from 227 employees in Korean companies with conducting structural equation modeling(SEM), this paper found that ethical leadership had a positive influence on safety behavior through mediating effect of psychological safety. In addition, employee's moral identity positively moderated the positive impact of ethical leadership on psychological safety.

The aim of this paper is to reveal the ethical problem of insider trading. 'Insider trading' refer to obtaining information from non-public sources such as private acquaintances about trade secret, using it purposes of enhancing insider's financial advantages. And sometimes such a practice can be conducted fraudulently. Therefore, the focus of this paper will be on fairness or justice arguments against insider trading. And all kinds of discussion this paper are to focus the underlying consideration behind these arguments, that is, the underlying consideration about violation of ethical standards of fairness. First, one of these arguments argues that insider trading does necessarily involve defrauding general investors such as general employees, general stockholders. And economic power and unjust advantage of insider can be exercised to the detriment of this non-insider's interests. Second, another argument argues that insider trading undermines competition which is the principle of any free market. And insider trading is not only a complication in the free market mechanism, but also thwarts free competition which free markets depend. Third, the final argument argues that insider trading will be made something unfair about the concept of equal access to information. This argument argues, therefore, that to permit insider trading would be to set up stock market trading rules that are unfair to non-insiders.

본 연구는 기업이 정보보호 투자 시 필요로 하는 경제성 평가의 접근방법을 제시한다. 기업은 윤리경영을 기초로 사업과 서비스를 통한 수익창출을 목표로 한다. 그리고 기업은 안정적인 사업, 서비스의 정보환경을 확보, 유지하기 위해 지속적인 정보보호 활동을 통하여 Risk를 줄이는 작업을 해 오고 있다. 기업의 정보보호 활동과 패턴은 초기의 정보보호 기본기능을 도입, 구축하는 단계에서 탈피하여 점진적으로 종합적인 관리체계로 발전되고 있으며 이와 병행하여 산출되는 정보와 정규화 되는 Data를 기초로 정량적인 관리가 이루어 지 는 시점에 와 있다. 기업의 정보보호 투자에 대한 경제적인 효과를 체계적으로 평가하고 관리하는 활동은 아직도 초기단계에 머무르고 있다. 그러므로 기업이 정보보호 투자 시 발생되는 피해비용의 감소와 사업 및 서비스 등에서 예측되는 경제가치 창출에 대한 기대효과의 정량적인 관리를 통해 투자의 기준을 제시하여 기업에서 효과적인 정보보호 투자가 이루어지도록 함에 있다.

정부가 국정 하반기 정책기조를 대기업 중심에서 중소기업 중심으로 변경하면서 원칙을 강조하는 수준을 넘어 실질적인 상생 규제 정책을 내놓고 있어 주목되고 있다. 정부는 지난 9월 29일 정부와 대 중소기업계가 모인 '대 중소기업 동반성장 전략회의'(제72차 국민경제대책회의)에서 지속가능한 성장동력과 경쟁력을 확보하기 위한 '대 중소기업 동반성장 추진대책'을 수립, 발표했다. 사회 윤리적인 수준을 넘어 각종 규제와 혜택으로써 기업문화의 풍토를 바꾸려는 시도를 하고 있는 것이다. 최근들어 정부는 각종 상생관련 정책을 내놓으면서'상생'이라는 말 대신 '동반성장'이라는 표현을 쓰고 있다. 일방적 시혜 혹은 분배에 초점을 맞춘 것이 아니라 거시적인 의미의 '성장'에 초점을 맞춰 기업 생태계의 변화를 촉구하고 있는 것이다. 즉, 생태계가 커질수록 일부 요소의 투입보다는 각종 요소들이 다양하게 공존함으로써 발생되는 시너지 효과에 미래의 성장동력이 있다고 판단하고 있다. 본지는 정부의 동반성장 정책과 업계의 반응, 설비업계를 대변하여 대한설비건설협회가 건의한 '건설산업 상생을 위한 제도 개선', 그리고 대기업의 동반성장 추진 현황에 대해 알아본다.

With frequent incidents of unethical practices and acts in organizations, organizational leaders need to understand some of the causes that facilitate such negative organizational behaviors to lessen the chances of unethical behaviors from occurring. In an effort to understand some of the causes of unethical behavior, this study looks at competitive atmosphere and results-focused performance evaluation as some of the influencing factors on employees' tendency to decide to behave unethically. Competition culture can spur unethical behavior and evaluation culture with emphasis on results-focused which can create a perception among employees of a narrow view of work and how it is defined. The argument of this paper is that such characteristics can create environment for unethical behaviors and serve as an added push upon employees to choose to behave unethically. Collection of survey results from those working in Busan area were used to test the hypotheses using regression. Data analysis showed that in organizational atmosphere that is overly competitive and results-focused can influence employees to behave unethically.

According to the results of the FKI's ethical management status and CSR promotion status, about 95% of domestic companies enact the Code of Ethics, while 64% of companies operating systems for communication and dialogue with stakeholders in the process of CSR activities, It seems that strategic CSR activities of domestic companies have not been fully established yet compared with the introduction of ethical management. Even if companies conduct CSR activities strategically, there is very little CSR level of the companies that consumers perceive. This is because the psychological mechanism of CSR on consumers' perceptions is too complicated and detailed, resulting in a positive result and a negative result depending on the investigator's research method. So far, there have been many studies on the direct impact of CSR on corporate evaluation, purchase intention, and corporate image. However, there are few studies on the effect of CSR and CA on purchase intention through product attitude. Therefore, The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effect of corporate social responsibility(CSR) and corporate Ability(CA) on the purchase intention through product attitudes perceived by consumers, and the moderating effect of corporate reputation between product attitude and purchase intention. As a research method, we selected 4 companies, such as Samsung etc, who have been conducting CSR for the past 10 years, as a sample. The relationship between the CSR and the corporate competence of these companies on purchasing intention was examined through questionnaires for general consumers. The results of this study show that CSR and CA have a positive effect on product attitude, and consumers' product attitude has a positive effect on purchase intention. In addition, CSR and CA were found to have a positive (+) effect on purchase intention through consumer attitude. Finally, it is found that the reputation of the firm has a moderating effect on the relationship between consumer's product attitude and purchase intention. This study suggests that CSR should be strategically promoted in order to positively shape the attitude of consumers toward products of companies and their companies. As a theoretical implication, this study showed that the effect of CSR activities and CA on consumer's product attitude and purchase intention, centered on mediating effects of product attitude and corporate reputation discrimination.

This study examined the influence of ethical leadership on employee job satisfaction and the mediating role of employee engagement in the relationship between these two variables. In this study, employee engagement was divided into job engagement and organization engagement. Data were collected from 183 employees working for Korean companies. The results of this study are as follows. First, it was found that ethical leadership was positively related to both job engagement and organization engagement. Second, ethical leadership was also positively related to job satisfaction of employees. Third, job engagement and organization engagement were found to partially mediate the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction respectively. The results of this study suggest a theoretical contribution in that it expanded existing studies on the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction. This study is significant in that it revealed a mechanism that ethical leadership directly affects job satisfaction in the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction, but indirectly positively affects employee engagement variables such as job engagement and organization engagement. The results of this study also suggest practical implications that CEOs should strive to help organizational managers demonstrate ethical leadership. In addition, the results of this study suggest practical implications that managers and human resource development experts need to seek ways to increase the level of engagement of employees in the organization. Finally, this study presented limitations to be revised and supplemented in future studies and future research directions.
