The Moral-Value Orientation—A Prerequisite for Sustainable Development of the Corporate Social Responsibility of a Security Organization

Abstract

The article focuses on the social aspects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the Czech Armed Forces (CAF) and, more specifically, on professional ethics as a prerequisite for the sustainable development of the security organization. The text presents the results of research conducted on a sample of 278 members of the CAF. This research was based on Schwartz’s holistic concept. To determine value orientation, a reduced version with 21 entries of the Schwartz’s Portrait Values Questionnaire (PVQ) was used. Our data indicate that value orientation changes depending on military rank, depends, to a certain degree, on trait conformity (including obedience, respect for authorities, politeness, and self-control), and increases in the presence of lower-ranking individuals. Based on these findings the authors recommend to continue monitoring the value profiles of CAF members at various stages in their careers, to determine the optimal range of self-identification with a certain military rank and position, and to provide rank and position-specific educational programs into military ethics and ethical leadership aimed at sustainable development of moral-values.

Speakers subject positive politeness to the opponent or object based on ethics and genuine morals ( Alaba, 2015 ; Fatma et al., 2019 ; Mikulka et al., 2020 ; Al-jabri et al., 2021 ). It closely relates to the values emphasized in prophetic education, including humanism, liberation, and transcendence.…”

Systematic Literature Review on Variables Impacting Organization’s Zero Accident Vision in Occupational Safety and Health Perspectives

“…Employees desire encouragement from organizational management to embrace organizational change, and this support should be delivered in a manner consistent with a successful leadership style [59]. Thus, leadership, personality, and integrity cannot be neglected when organizational management seeks to improve employee performance and behavior [60].
