Purpose – Ethical culture is a specific form of organizational culture (including values and
systems that can promote ethical behavior), and as such a socially constructed phenomenon.
However, no previous studies have investigated the degree to which employees’ perceptions of
their organization’s ethical culture are shared within work units (departments), which was the
first aim of this study. In addition, we studied the associations between ethical culture and
occupational well-being (i.e., burnout and work engagement) at both the individual and workunit
levels. Design/methodology/approach – The questionnaire data was gathered from 2,146
respondents with various occupations in 245 different work units in one public sector
organization. Ethical organizational culture was measured with the Corporate Ethical Virtues
scale (CEV), including eight sub-dimensions. Findings – Multilevel structural equation
modeling showed that 12–27% of the total variance regarding the dimensions of ethical culture
was explained by departmental homogeneity (shared experiences). At both the within and
between levels, higher perceptions of ethical culture associated with lower burnout and higher
work engagement. Implications – The results suggest that organizations should support ethical
practices at the work-unit level, to enhance work engagement, and should also pay special
attention to work units with a low ethical culture because these work environments can expose
employees to burnout. Originality/value – This is one of the first studies to find evidence of an
association between shared experiences of ethical culture and collective feelings of both burnout
and work engagement.
