The Role of Ethics in Corporate Governance in Building and Construction Industry

Abstract

This role of ethics in corporate governance in the Building and Construction Industry (BCI) has recently attracted considerable attention and consequently research on international and national level. The aim of the paper is firstly to point to the role of ethics in corporate governance in both large and small organisations in the BCI in Australia. Secondly, the paper suggests in what direction governance should further develop in order that the Australian BCI can remain globally competitive.
