The week of October 12, 2015, I was challenged with an ethical issue. One of my responsibilities here at NSU-STEP as a social work intern is to administer intake- a process whereby data is collected from potential clients to determine eligibility. Through the process we often ask questions and collect sensitive information such as social security cards, birth certificates, income etc. Confidentiality is essential through this procedure because we are gathering sensitive information from the client. However, because we were very busy one afternoon my coworker
NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct and Statement of Commitment (Appendix A) The administrators role in implementing Section I: Ethical Responsibilities to Children, is by ensuring that each child is in a safe and healthy environment, where each child’s needs are met. An ideal important from this section is 1-1.9, which states that each child whether disabled or not, has the same support services to succeed. This is important in the field of early childhood education, because each child has the right to learn, and succeed. It is a law that no child is left behind, and can receive the appropriate tools necessary to reach their full potential, whether disabled or not.
After carefully reviewing NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct and Statement of Commitment I first analyzed its Conceptual framework, it sets forth the responsibilities as a childcare personnel & the professional responsibilities of childcare workers including childcare leaders as well the code of conduct framework of professional responsibilities. Furthermore it’s separated into four sections, however each section covers the following area as a professional relationships with any children that personnel come in contact with whether they attend the childcare center or contact during trips & or picking the children up from school, relationships with families in & out of the childcare center, professional relationship among colleagues, and relationships & interactions amongst the community and society. Each section also includes but not limited to an introduction with the primary responsibilities as an early childhood education practitioner & or personnel regardless of what position the childcare worker may hold in that context. As
The NASW code of ethics a promotes integrity, competence, dignity, worth of the person, and the importance of human relationships, etc. Accreditation is a system for recognizing educational institutions and professional programs affiliated with those institutions as having a level of performance, integrity, and quality that entitles them to the confidence of the educational community and the public they serve. The Commission on Accreditation (COA) of the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) is recognized by the Council for Higher Education Authority to accredit baccalaureate and master’s degree programs in social work education in the United States and its territories. The COA is responsible for formulating, promulgating, and implementing
The North Carolina State Board of Education outlines the professional standards to which teaches should uphold within, and even outside of, the classroom. These standards are comprised of the commitment to the student, commitment to the school, and commitment to the profession. Also, the Code of Ethics includes the professional conduct which entails, honesty, the acknowledgement of the rights of others, keeping information confidential, and compliance of criminal laws (NC State Board of Education, 1998). Ultimately, the NC Code of Ethics is a set of rules in which teachers must uphold during their career. Discussion Commitment to the Student
Ethical Codes of a Police Department In police departments across the country, upholding a high standard of ethical conduct is always a priority in everything that a police officer does on a regular basis. In order to uphold the high standards of ethical conduct, many police officers are often bound to act and abide by the ethical responsibilities and procedures set forth in their departments honor code. When it comes to creating an honor code, police departments will normally abide by a similar code used by the International Association of Chiefs of Police. Even though, a city police department 's honor code may be a different level from the code used by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, there are many similarities and differences between the two entities.
The seven core values of the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct are different kind of commitments that we have to follow in order to be in a field of any early childhood care and education. The seven values are: Appreciate childhood as a unique and valuable stage of the human life cycle. , Base our work on knowledge of how children develop and learn. , Appreciate and support the bond between the child and family, recognize that children are best understood and supported in the context of family, culture, community and society. , Respect the dignity, work and uniqueness of each individual., Respect diversity in children, families ,and colleagues., And finally, Recognize that children and adults achieve their full potential in the context of relationships that are based on trust and respect.
Profession Code of Ethics Comparison As a social work student, we are provided with the foundational education necessary to succeed in our profession. The National Association of Social Work (NASW) Code of Ethics is the most significant publication because it “is intended to serve as a guide to the everyday professional conduct of social workers” (NASW Code of Ethics, 2017). For this assignment, we are charged with exploring other professional codes of ethics to gain a better understanding of how they may be similar or differ from one another. Therefore, I choose to explore the American Counseling Association (ACA) Code of Ethics with the intention of conducting a comparison analysis of both documents.
Planning is transforming socially, but to achieve change it has to bring together, politicians, planners, and residents (Sandercock, 2004). Citizen’s opinions and rights should be taken into consideration. It is the number one rule in the planning process for participants. It says, “recognize the rights of citizens to participate in planning decisions” (Ethical, n.d.). Cities cannot progress unless they change their ways of doing things.
Understanding the Profession After reviewing the NASW Code of Ethics Core Values, a core value that I have demonstrated in the past is the value Integrity. Integrity is trustworthy and honest. I have demonstrated this core value many times throughout my life. Throughout my middle school through college days, there were many instances that I have been the therapist for the people closest to me. I have always respected their privacy and kept everything they told me to myself.

One of the many businesses that exist globally and that I feel embodies ethical norms is 3M. This company produces thousands of goods for many different industries. These industries range from automotive, commercial solutions, communications, consumer, design & construction, electronics, energy, health care, manufacturing, mining oil & gas, safety, and transportation. Some of their consumer products that are aimed towards the final consumer can be found at a local superstore that sells a variety of goods. For example, if I am in need for sticky notes for school, I can easily go to a local Wal-Mart or Target and they should have them in their shelves. But I could also go to a local office supply store and they should carry 3M products that
INTRODUCTION Ethics is basically a common thing that the world expects for an individual to possess. This is concerned solely with moral values and principles of individuals. According to an American Judge, Potter Stewart “Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.” This states that every individual differs from perceptions of their minds about what you have a right to do and what is the right thing to do. What you have a right to do indicate the individual’s ability to do what is legal, but this doesn’t necessarily mean it is the right thing to do.
• Ethical Responsibilities Even though economical and legal responsibilities exemplify about fairness and justice, ethical responsibilities cover those activities and practices that are expected or prohibited by members of society even though they are not codified in law. Ethical responsibilities represent those norms, standards or expectations that reflect a jest of what employees, consumers and shareholders regard as just, fair or in keeping the protection or respect of stakeholders’ moral rights. They are important to perform in a manner consistent with expectations of societal and ethical norms. The firms should recognize and respect the ethical moral norms adopted by society from time to time.
