Abstract :Organizational corruption results in dismantlement of the entire structure, resulting in inefficient decisions and implementations. We examined how corruption is being triggered by the embedded organizational structure and policies after interviewing more than 40 individuals from both blue & white collar employees in both private & public sectors. We argue that corruption is not only practiced for private gains, but there are situations where an individual is bound to get tangled in routinized corrupt activities due to embedment of irrational structural background and processes, emphasizing on an important point that the overall system needs to be strengthened to eradicate corruption in a different dimension.
