Vol. 31, no. 2 (2025), pp. 288-305.This article aims to evaluate the accuracy of two distinct methodologies—the multi-criteria (MC) approach and the process-based (PB) approach—for assessing corruption risks in managerial job positions within ISO 37001-certified organizations. Unlike prior research, this study is the first to directly compare these methods using standardized risk scales, allowing for a quantitative assessment of their accuracy. The PB approach analyzes critical decision-making activities, while the MC method uses predefined weighted criteria. The study calculated a Job Position Corruption Risk Number (JPCRN) under both methods and introduced a novel accuracy metric (ΔJPi) representing the difference between them. Although the MC method provides acceptable overall accuracy (average ΔJPi = 0.16), it becomes less reliable when organizations have very few or many high-risk positions. The findings underscore that organizations with elevated corruption risk profiles need to adopt a more precise PB method.enCC BY Creative Commons Attribution 4.0.
