Survey: One third of workers witness misconduct

A Hudson ethics in the workplace survey says nearly a third of U.S. workers have witnessed ethical misconduct by co-workers, but only half reported it. (PR Newswire). In releasing the results of the survey, conducted by Rasmussen Reports, LLC, Hudson general counsel David Rhind said,

"Workplace ethics is not an abstract concept, but a critical part of a healthy company. Even with clear ethics policies in place, companies must create a culture of integrity throughout the organization by providing both the means and the mandate to report concerns." (PR Newswire)

The Hudson report provides fresh ammunition for those arguing for stronger whistleblower protections. The full report is available at http://www.hudson-index.com/.
