Iimitation of Personal and Professional Responsibility under the Terms of the Directives
Responsibility is understood as altruistic activity based on awareness of the consequences of one's activities. The article justifies the forced need to imitate responsibility, when an employee is required to have activities contrary to his professional conscience and common sense. Contradictions related to different understandings of “good” work (honest, high-quality, socially oriented) by different subjects of labor relations, including the employee and the bearers of policy prescriptions (leadership, colleagues, members of the public etc.) are analyzed. It proposes a model of predicting possible imitations of personal and professional responsibility, based on the reflection of these contradictions. In the case of creative work (science, education, culture etc.), under strong bureaucratic pressure of various policy prescriptions, the ideas of the development of “parallel” science are proposed, when, on the one hand, it is necessary to imitate a certain activity (ostentatious “workholism”), and on the other hand, to find opportunities for real creativity.
