Abstract

Etika ima različita izvorišta, od religije i filozofije pa do ekonomije i prava, a u novije vrijeme ista se razmatra i kao biološko-psihološko-sociološki fenomen. Neki elementi moralnosti su univerzalni, usprkos razlikama među religijama pa i tamo gdje je utjecaj religije slabiji. Poslovna etika, kao podskup etike, vrlo je važna za suvremeno društvo. Pri njenom proučavanju, edukaciji i provedbi, važno je ispravno razumijevati odnos poslovne etike i prava te izbjeći zamke etičkog relativizma. Za svaku od pojedinih struka ovlaštenih inženjera u graditeljstvu i prostornom uređenju u Republici Hrvatskoj nadležna strukovna komora propisala je etički kodeks. Neke od odredbi tih etičkih kodeksa su vrlo problematične pa je vidljivo kako etički kodeks ne mora uvijek imati u cijelosti pozitivan predznak i promovirati društveno prihvatljivu te tržišno i poslovno opravdanu etiku. Istraživanje o poslovnoj etici ovlaštenih inženjera u graditeljstvu i prostornom uređenju u Republici Hrvatskoj pokazalo je da postoji veliki prostor za napredak iste, kako kroz individualni rad ovlaštenih inženjera na sebi, tako i kroz aktivnosti njihovih tvrtki i nadležnih strukovnih komora, s time da je u pojedinim segmentima potreban i širi društveni pristup. Također, može se zaključiti da ovlašteni inženjeri previše ne promišljaju o problemima etike vezano uz svoj posao i/ili ti problemi predstavljaju tabu temu.

Abstract (english)

Ethics has various sources, from religion and philosophy to economics and law, and more recently it has been considered as a biological-psychological-sociological phenomenon. Some elements of morality are universal, despite differences between religions and even there where the influence of religion is weaker. Business ethics, as a subset of ethics, is very important for modern society. In its study, education and implementation, it is important to properly understand the relationship between business ethics and law and to avoid the traps of ethical relativism. For each of the individual professions of certified engineers in construction and physical planning in the Republic of Croatia, the professional chamber in charge has prescribed a code of ethics. Some of the provisions of these codes of ethics are very problematic, so it is clear that the code of ethics does not always have to have a fully positive attribute and to promote socially acceptable and market-based and business-based ethics. Research on business ethics of certified engineers in construction and physical planning in the Republic of Croatia has shown that there is much room for improvement, both through the individual work of certified engineers on themselves, and through the activities of their companies and professional chambers in charge, provided that for some segments there is a requirement for broader social approach. Also, it can be concluded that certified engineers do not think too much about ethical issues related to their work and/or that issues are a taboo topic.
