Sustainable business ethics
Newly published research attempts to summarise and connect a number of concepts that are essential to a good production culture
Sustainable enterprise and sustainable society. “Sustainability” has become a mantra in almost every area of human activity, including the business world. A mantra that must be approached with care and clarity, bearing in mind the many nuances and potential misunderstandings it carries. Therefore, there are many factors to consider when thinking about sustainability. This is especially important to bear in mind, given that sustainability often goes hand in hand with ethics and is now one of the foundations of a positive production culture. This is the basis of Dipak R. Pant’s research, recently published in the International Scientific Journal.
According to the author’s opening statements, “Business ethics, environmental justice, and the path to sustainability. Interdisciplinary reflections across anthropology and economics” aims to share some interdisciplinary reflections based on observations of business ethics and environmental justice in different cultural contexts. Pant begins by observing that the term “sustainability” has acquired various meanings in recent times. Essentially, however, it denotes social responsibility, environmental justice, and ethical business practices. Concepts that apply to both production organisations and social systems. Pant goes on to explain that business ethics refers not only to the fair treatment of those directly involved in the business (employees, suppliers, intermediaries, customers, etc.), but also to the fairness of all business operations and their impact on society and the environment.
And, as Pant points out, the complex concept of equity; a concept that touches on several aspects of human action as well as the environment as a whole. Corporate sustainability is achieved through the responsible use and sharing of natural resources. As active economic actors, corporate organisations are under increasing pressure to reduce their negative impact and conduct their business in an ethical and just way. According to Pant, the quest for sustainability is essentially about ethical business practices and environmental justice.
Dipak R. Pant’s study provides an excellent overview of complex and ever-changing issues. These are important topics for every entrepreneur and manager, and ultimately for everyone within an organisation.
