- Title

- Abstract
This article examines an ethical risk assessment conducted in one of South African largest higher education institutions, with the purpose to provide a confirmed structure and conceptualisation of ethical risks to be used within the Higher Education sector. A statistical analysis of 1 687 respondents participating in the original ethical risk assessment survey was conducted. Confirmatory factor analyses supported a higher order, multidimensional model of three main factors, namely institutional ethical leadership orientation, individual\employee ethical orientation and institutional student-centeredness\orientation. Based on this examination and analysis this three-factor structure provides sufficient evidence of a conceptual ethical framework to be used as basis of ethical risk assessments by higher education institutions.
