Globalization has placed modern organizations in tremendous competition locally and regionally across borders; thus, the ultimate goal of every organization is the same which is profitable survival. In order to make sure that this profitable survival goal does not come at the cost of harming others, guiding principles are needed to bring goodness and fairness for the stakeholders' interests. This paves the way for designing, implementing and adopting ethical principles in the organization to keep competition fair and just. This study has been carried out in three big cities (Peshawar, Lahore and Islamabad) of Pakistan to identify and assess the relationship of workplace ethics with age, qualification, management experience, government work experience and on-the-job ethics training. Collected data from 380 male and female Pakistani respondents were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical measures. The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between ethical maturity of employees and such demographic variables as age, qualification, on-the-job ethics training, having had an ethics course, and years of management experience. However, government work experience did not demonstrate any significant results with ethical maturity. Implications and suggestions for management development and training are provided.

Background/Aims Doctors in non-consultant, non-training (NCNT) trust grade posts are an important part of the medical workforce across the UK, but their needs are often neglected. It is important to explore their work-related experience to support their welfare. This study aimed to explore the issues that were most important to the positive work experience of this group of doctors. Method Work-related themes were identified through meetings with NCNT trust grade doctors. A questionnaire was then compiled asking such doctors to rate statements based on these themes using a 5-point Likert scale. Correlations between scores on these statements and the scores on the key statement ‘I will recommend coming to this hospital for training to my friends’ were explored. Results The questionnaire was completed by 25 doctors. Statements reflecting organisational culture, such as ‘I never felt bullied’ (r=0.698) or ‘I feel well supported in my work’ (r=0.796) demonstrated strong correlations with whether respondents would recommend the trust to a friend, while process-based statements, such as ‘I have been allocated a clinical supervisor’ (r=0.12), did not. Conclusions Focusing on the needs and opinions of NCNT trust grade doctors is important to support recruitment and retention. When evaluating the impact of processes on job satisfaction for this group, it may be more useful to focus on the outcomes of the processes and the general organisational culture, rather than simply checking off whether the processes exist.
