Abstract

The public sector is to provide government services with an ethical manner and full of integrity. However, frontline newspaper and online media have widely reported that unethical diseases have contaminated the public sector. Many fraud and corruption cases involving top and medium management of the public sector were real and these were proven through the accusation and arrestment made by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission. These blunders have increased high concern among the public and international society because it harms the public sector and may cause a bad image to the ruler government. Thus, the objectives of this study are to explore the five elements of public sector ethical self-identity precautionary and to propose the Organizational Ethical Self-Identity Precautionary Model in enhancing ethical accountability of the Malaysian Public Sector. This study employed qualitative research by analyzing data from interviews with key informers of the public sector using conceptual content analysis. The study revealed five elements of Organizational Ethical Self-Identity Precautionary Model which are ethical leadership (8 attributes), ethical employees (9 attributes), spirituality encouragement (6 attributes), spirituality acceptance (6 attributes) and code of ethical conduct (5 attributes). These identified elements and their attributes should become the ethical identity and ethical direction of the Malaysian Public Sector. This would enhance the ethical accountability of Malaysia Public Sector which further improved the trust among Malaysian and the international community towards the governance of the public sector.
