Abstract:Implementation of digital ethics in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) can make sure a SME does get a competitive advantage. Currently there is no standard method available for the analysis of digital ethics awareness. The purpose of the paper is aimed at clarifying how digital ethics awareness can be analyzed within small and medium enterprises. This will be achieved by creating a self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) for companies to get a clear overview of their current awareness of digital ethics in their own company. The questionnaire can also serve as a starting point for a SME to improve their digital ethics awareness or even their implementation of digital ethics. A systematic literature review has been carried out to identify the ethical concepts that are of key importance for the analysis of digital ethics. Based on the findings of this review, a list of different ‘digital ethics areas’ is derived. Eventually the paper presents the self-assessment questionnaire for companies which gives a comparative calculation for each of these areas.
