This IBE Paper presents the results of the first IBE Ethics at Work Survey of employees in continental Europe, conducted in 2012. The Survey measured the attitudes of full and part-time staff to workplace practices in the public and private sectors of France, Germany, Italy and Spain, their perceptions of others’ behaviour and the general culture in their organisations. The continental Europe Survey data also allowed for indicative comparisons with the results of the 2012 British Ethics at Work Survey to be drawn.
