AB  - The literature rarely addresses the possible effects of organizations’ internal ethical context on their employees’ subjective well-being, that is, people’s evaluation of their lives based on
positive and negative emotional experiences and perceived life satisfaction. This study explored
how internal ethical context’s components—specifically ethics codes, ethics programs’ scope and
perceived relevance, and perceived corporate social responsibility practices—are related to workers’
subjective well-being. Ethical leadership’s possible leveraging of ethical context variables’ effect
on subjective well-being was also examined. The data were collected from 222 employees from
various organizations in Portugal using an electronic survey. The results from multiple regression
analyses indicate that organizations’ internal ethical context positively affects employees’ subjective
well-being. This impact is mediated by ethical leadership, suggesting that leaders play a crucial role
in highlighting and embodying their organization’s ethical norms and orientation, thereby directly
influencing their staff members’ subjective well-being.
