Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore how organizations in Northeast Florida are managing downsizing during an economic recession. This research analyzes the concept of ethical integrity defined by Weber (2001). Ethical integrity addresses six considerations: (a) selection (b) communication; (c) process; (d) transition and transfer; (e) the rebuilding of morale among remaining employees; and (f) pastoral/spiritual reality. Based upon the results of the survey, it appears as though the phenomenon of downsizing and managerial/employee perceptions could be classified as a causal relationship. Though organizations in Northeast Florida are displaying best practices relating to the areas of selection, communication, and transfer processes, they appear to be struggling in the areas of process, rebuilding of morale, and pastoral/spiritual reality.
