The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was passed by Congress following a series of serious accounting scandals that made corporate ethics and integrity a prominent public concern. Among its provisions is Section 302, which requires the CEO, CFO, and/or other top managers to review the company’s financial statements and certify that they are fairly stated (not misleading), and to evaluate the corporate controls and procedures in place to prevent fraud and error in financial records. This was Congress’s response to fraudulent financial statement communications and an attempt to protect the public from being misled in the future. But as we all know, ethics and integrity encompass many areas, not just financial record keeping.
The purpose of this discussion is to explore corporate ethics and integrity. You are free to bring up any thoughts you have on the subject, and the more diverse, the better. What comes to mind when you hear the words corporate ethics and integrity? What are your experiences with ethics and/or integrity in the workplace? How can ethics/integrity be achieved? These questions are posed to get your thinking started; they don’t have to be answered directly.
Please also respond to at least one classmate’s post.
