Abstract This article examines the relationships between ethical values and business sustainability. Using previously validated measuring scales, we analyzed the relationship between three values (perceived support, respect and responsibility) in the three dimensions of sustainability (economic, social and environmental) with a sample of 124 cooperative entities of social economy. A structural equations model was used to evaluate the relationships between the proposed constructs, employing the Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) method. The results confirm the positive relationships between some of the studied values and the sustainability of social entities, demonstrating that the emphasis on some values over others will result in different impacts on economic, social and environmental sustainability.
