Background of the Study
Business ethics violations, including corruption, exploitation, and environmental negligence, have far-reaching consequences for organizations and stakeholders. In manufacturing firms, unethical practices often manifest in poor labor practices, substandard products, and regulatory breaches (Okon & Bello, 2024). Globally, the adoption of ethical frameworks is increasingly recognized as essential for sustainable development.
In Niger State, the manufacturing sector contributes significantly to industrial and economic growth. However, recurring reports of ethics violations in these firms have raised concerns about their impact on organizational reputation, financial performance, and stakeholder trust. This study aims to examine the nature of ethics violations in manufacturing firms and their consequences in Niger State.
Statement of the Problem
Despite existing ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks, manufacturing firms in Niger State frequently violate business ethics. These violations often lead to legal penalties, diminished customer loyalty, and reputational damage (Eze & Adeyemi, 2023). The persistence of these issues highlights the need for an in-depth examination of ethical violations and their consequences to recommend strategies for mitigation.
