Abstract
The present study was conducted with the aim of modeling the ethics-based model of human resource management at Payam Noor University. This research is in the category of applied, quantitative and correlational research. The participants in this study are 352 faculty members of Payam Noor University who were selected according to the Krejci and Morgan table and using a random cluster sampling method. The data collection tool is a researcher-made questionnaire that was obtained from the qualitative findings of the thesis. In this study, in addition to describing the demographic information of the participants, structural equation modeling and the partial least squares (PLS) method were used in SPSS version 23 and SmartPLS version 3 software at a significance level of 0.05 for data analysis. The results of the study showed that the research model has a good fit and that causal conditions have a positive and significant effect on the functional category (p=0.001) and the functional category, contextual conditions and intervening conditions also have a positive and significant effect on strategies (p=0.001) and finally, strategies also have a positive and significant effect on consequences (p=0.001). Therefore, by applying the ethics-based human resource management model, Payam Noor University can facilitate improving the quality of internal relations, creating a healthy work environment, and maintaining employee trust. This model also helps improve organizational performance, increase employee commitment and reduce unwanted changes.
