Human Resource Management: Ethics and Employment

---

In general, the chapters within this book are not ‘against ethics’ as such although all are to varying degrees critical of ethical codes or moral recipes that oversimplify the realities of making moral decisions. All of the contributors to this book are interested in understanding the many duties, responsibilities, and issues of care and concern for others that arise within employment and in HRM. This means that in some cases norms, principles, and codes are raised and discussed, but we suggest this is largely done with an awareness of the deleterious effect that creating rules can have on the autonomy of others. The chapters address both the more recent and other long-standing debates on ethics and moral problems through adopting a wide variety of perspectives on business, ethics, HRM, and employment. The summaries in the remainder
6 INTRODUCTION
of this Introduction, bring out the common thread of a concern for the role of HRM in the structure and dynamics of both (business) utility and moral decency in modern employment relations.

This book is divided into three main parts. Part I (Situating Human Resource Management) deals with the economic, political,and legal contexts within which ethical issues in contemporary HRM arise, including employment relations, theories of management, economic philosophy, strategic management, innovation, and the productive use of physical and human resources. Part II (Analysing Human Resource Management) looks at the emerging practices and institutional settings of HRM in ways that bring to the fore their ethical dimensions. Here, the prospect of HRM as an emerging profession with distinctive ethical commitments and responsibilities for workplace business ethics, justice, and human rights is considered critically in the light of existing and potential cultural, legal, and economic frameworks. Last, in part III (Progressing Human Resource Management) this book explores the avenues for reforming HRM in the light of different managerial futures, moral philosophies, and institutional arrangements.
