Background of the Study
Ethical human resource (HR) practices are increasingly recognized as essential for fostering a positive work environment, enhancing employee satisfaction, and ensuring sustainable organizational growth (Smith & Cooper, 2024). Ethical HR practices encompass a variety of activities, including fair hiring processes, transparent decision-making, equal opportunities for all employees, and a commitment to employee welfare and well-being. In the banking sector, where trust, reputation, and employee morale play a crucial role in organizational success, ethical HR practices are particularly significant.
Zenith Bank Plc, a leading financial institution in Nigeria, operates in a highly competitive environment where ethical standards not only determine legal compliance but also influence long-term organizational performance. Ethical HR practices, such as transparent recruitment processes, fairness in performance appraisals, and a commitment to diversity and inclusion, can positively affect employee satisfaction, motivation, and retention, thereby contributing to the growth of the organization. However, despite the growing recognition of ethical practices, there remains a gap in understanding the specific impact of these practices on organizational growth in the context of Zenith Bank, Nasarawa State.
