Course Objective 本課程的目的一，將藉由五個面向了解企業倫理的本質，分別（1）廠商的社會責任，（2）消費者的保護，（3）員工的權益，（4）員工對公司的責任，（5）雇主與員工關係。目的二，進一步教授ESG及聯合國SDGs指標的基本定義，藉由國、內外的個案討論來深根學生對於企業永續經營的觀念。最後，透過對於ESG與市場機會、責任投資原則、環境足跡 (碳足跡、水足跡等) 盤點等，來訓練製作永續報告書的基礎能力 The objective of this course is to appreciate the essential of Business Ethics through five main faucets: (1) Corporate social responsibility, (2) Consumer protection, (3) Employee's rights and benefits, (4) Responsibility of employee to the firms, and (5) Employer-employee relations. The second objective is to further explain the definitions of ESG and SDGs, and then to root the concept of sustainable management to students through local and international case studies. Finally, through ESG market opportunities, principles for responsible investment, inventory of environmental footprint (carbon footprint, water footprint, etc.), we expect to build up students the basic ability to generate the ESG report.
