Abstract

This study provided a theoretical insight explicating how Organisational efficiency is influenced by ethical compliance in the workplace. The objectives of the study among other things were to examine the various ethical rules and the challenges hindering ethical compliance in the Ministry of Roads and Bridges. The paper utilizes a qualitative method and relies on both primary and secondary sources of data collection. The primary data was obtained through an in- depth interview while the secondary data was gotten from journals, textbooks and internet. The study adopted the principal-agent theory as a basis of analysis. The study reveals among other things that ethical compliance promotes Organisational efficiency and that the growth of Organisation depends largely on how well resources are utilized in accordance with the rules guiding the institution. Furthermore, the study reveals that the compliance with ethical rules in the Ministry is hindered by lack of financial resources and motivation. The paper therefore recommends among other things that the ministry should recruit workers with integrity and moral rectitude by conducting psychological test to ascertain prospective workers level of integrity. Also, that goals and targets be set for workers putting into consideration, the amount of resources expended in comparison with the final outputs in the course of executing projects. More so, a system of reward should be established specifically to reward workers that display attitudes of trustworthiness, integrity, and are in compliance with the ministry ethical rules and regulations.
