RESUMO

O estudo analisa as relações entre cinco climas éticos e quatro Comportamentos de Cidadania Organizacional (CCO). A amostra é composta por 269 díades superior-subordinado. Cada subordinado descreveu as suas percepções de climas éticos; os seus CCO foram relatados pelo respectivo superior. Os dados sugerem o seguinte: a) as pessoas retraem-se na execução de CCO quando denotam elevadas percepções do clima auto-interesse; b) algo similar ocorre com o clima leis/códigos; c) as mulheres e os homens reagem distintamente ao clima lucros; d) os padrões de reação dos colaboradores fabris e não-fabris também divergem. Os resultados indicam a necessidade de se desenvolverem pesquisas que testem a existência de variáveis moderadoras na relação climas–CCO.

Palavras-chave: Climas éticos, comportamentos de cidadania organizacional, desempenho contextual, eficácia organizacional, cultura nacional.

ABSTRACT

The study aims at showing how five ethical climates explain four Organizational Citizenship Behaviors (OCB). A sample comprising 269 subordinate-supervisor dyads was collected. Each subordinate described his/her perceptions of ethical climates; their supervisors reported the OCB. The main findings are as following: a) people decrease their OCB when they perceive that self-interest climate is high; b) the same tends to occur with laws/codes climate; c) men and women react oppositely to the company profit ethical climate; d) production and non-production employees also react differently. The results suggest the need to investigate the variables that may moderate the relationships between ethical climates and OCB.

Key words: Ethical climates, organizational citizenship behaviors, contextual performance, organizational effectiveness, national culture.
