ADVANCING HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS IN THE WORKPLACE
As leaders in their businesses and professions, Rotarians can advance high ethical standards by setting a positive example among colleagues and in their community. Here are a few specific ways Rotarians integrate ethics into their daily work life:
• Discuss and emphasize honesty, accountability, fairness, integrity, and respect when hiring, training, and supervising employees
• Praise and encourage the exemplary behavior of colleagues
• Demonstrate personal commitment to high ethical standards in relations with customers, vendors, and business associates, treating each business interaction with care and
consideration
• Promote socially and environmentally responsible practices in your businesses and organizations
