ORGANISATIONAL HEALTH OF MANUFACTURING FIRMS IN NIGERIA: A THEORETICAL FOCUS ON THE ROLE OF ETHICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Abstract
This paper discussed the role of ethical infrastructure in the organisational health of manufacturing firms in Nigeria. The design for the paper is theoretical, and its theoretical premise is the institutions theory. Through the lens of the institutional theory, ethical infrastructure, expanded upon and its significance and reinforcement within the context of the Nigerian manufacturing sector, espoused. The paper, drawing on the dominant and prevailing position, emphasised the need for bolstering ethical behaviour and conduct within organisations through rewards, and also addressing deviance and non-compliance through strict sanctions. Drawing on the review, it was concluded that ethical infrastructure is critical for the health of manufacturing organisations, even those within Nigeria. The focus on strengthening such, would serve the economic wellbeing of the sector and can also be used to drive long-term global initiatives and goals.
