ETHICS IN NIGERIA PUBLIC SECTOR: THE HR PRACTITIONERS’ PERSPECTIVES

Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 8

Abstract

Ethics standards and practices in Nigeria public sector would continue to engage the front burner of discourse in Nigeria for as long as service delivery is synonymous with economic stagnation, weak institutions and endemic corruption. The study was conducted using government agencies and parastatals based in Lagos, Nigeria selected through proportionate stratified sampling technique; standardized measures were adapted and administered on the sample. Apart from the human resource department not being part of ethics infrastructure, the analysis of data also showed that there is no promotion of ethics in the Nigeria public sector. The implications of the findings were discussed.
