Work ethic has historically been linked to financial success of
individuals and is an multi-dimensional attribute desired by
employers. Employers often state the need for a high level of work
ethic, but have difficulty quantifing and defining work ethic. This
book explores the historical development of work ethic as an
acceptable and desired norm. Work ethic is often described as a
social expectation and ascribed to specific cultures. However, work
ethic is also used to describe specific attributes of individuals
regardless of cultural identity. This book discusses the theories
of the development. The book also reviews relevant literature to
define and quantify work ethic. Employers often make hiring
decisions based on perceptions of positive work ethic by
employement status, age and gender. This book explores the validity
of such decisions and offers methods for increasing work ethic of
employees.
