The result shows that practitioners’ ethical evaluation has a statistically significant correlation with organizational ethical climate at r=0.314 and p<0.01, which is positive but moderately weak. This correlation indicates that personal and organizational ethics has a weak but positive correlation, and the correlation is statistically significant.
