DECLARATION
OF ROTARIANS
IN BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS
The
Declaration of Rotarians in Businesses and Professions was adopted by the Rotary
International Council on Legislation in 1989 to provide more specific guidelines
for the high ethical standards called for in the Object of Rotary:
As
a Rotarian engaged in a business or profession, I am expected to:
- Consider
my vocation to be another opportunity to serve;
- Be
faithful to the letter and to the spirit of the ethical codes of my vocation,
to the laws of my country, and to the moral standards of my community;
- Do
all in my power to dignify my vocation and to promote the highest ethical
standards in my chosen vocation;
- Be
fair to my employer, employees, associates, competitors, customers, the
public, and all those with whom I have a business or professional relationship;
- Recognize
the honor and respect due to all occupations which are useful to society;
- Offer
my vocational talents: to provide opportunities for young people, to work
for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality
of life in my community;
- Adhere
to honesty in my advertising and in all representations to the public concerning
my business or profession;
- Neither
seek from nor grant to a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally
accorded others in a business or professional relationship.
