Abstract: The paper analyzes ethics management in public sector through the perspective of public services’ consumers in Romania. The areas taken into account are education, medical system, parliament, police, army, public administration and other public institutions. The objective of the paper is to understand the mechanism of corruption in public sector, as the most important part of unethical behavior in this sector. The methodology used consists of a quantitative research conducted in October 2014 on a number of 171 people. The questionnaire was distributed online, respecting the confidentiality of respondents. The results of the study could be used by public managers or by government to create adequate strategies in order to increase the ethical level in public sector and also developing a better image of these institutions.
