McCaghy's Perspective on Organizational Deviance:Criminologist Charles McCaghy identified regulatory pressure as a significant factor influencing organizational deviance. Excessive or poorly implemented regulations can lead companies to cut corners or engage in fraudulent behavior to remain competitive.
Supporting Analysis:
Regulatory pressure can create a perception that compliance is too costly or burdensome, leading to unethical practices.
This aligns with the concept of "strain theory," where organizations under pressure may resort to deviance.
Conclusion:McCaghy's assertion that regulatory pressure is a key driver of organizational deviance is accurate.
