Professional ethics and codes of conduct

"Professional ethics are principles that govern the behaviour of a person or group in a business environment. Like values, professional ethics provide rules on how a person should act towards other people and institutions in such an environment" (Retrieved from https://www.iaa.govt.nz/for-advisers/adviser-tools/ethics-toolkit/professional-ethics-and-codes-of-conduct/). 

Ethics are both personal and professional.  

"Personal ethics refers to the ethics that a person identifies with in respect to people and situations that they deal with in everyday life.  Professional ethics refers to the ethics that a person must adhere to in respect of their interactions and business dealings in their professional life"(Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. (2019). New Zealand Government. Retrieved from https://www.iaa.govt.nz/for-advisers/adviser-tools/ethics-toolkit/the-difference-between-personal-and-professional-ethics/). 

Government ethics were created to ensure elected officials are using their office for the purpose of being elected.  

Ethics in Government Act

"The Ethics in Government Act of 1978 is a United States federal law that was passed in the wake of the Nixon Watergate scandal and the Saturday Night Massacre. It created mandatory, public disclosure of financial and employment history of public officials and their immediate families. It also created restrictions on lobbying efforts by public officials for a set period after leaving public office. Last, it created the U.S. Office of Independent Counsel, tasked with investigating government officials" (Reference: Wikipedia. (2019, January 12). Ethics in government act.
