Description

The paper describes a method to measure the effectiveness of an ethics program at one of the most important pawnshop chains in Mexico where a sample of 519 workers took part. A cluster randomized control trial experiment is conducted to assess effectiveness. We found no evidence of an enhanced understanding of the code of ethics derived from the communication and explanation of the code. This is an indication that companies might be wasting resources on ineffective ethics programs.
