Practical Aspects of Ethics
by Iain Greenway
Key words: ethics, business practices.
Abstract
With the globalisation of markets and increasingly high public
expectations of professional behaviour, ethics and their application
in practice are of vital importance to surveyors. The paper outlines
the theoretical basis for ethics, considers the necessary content of a
code of ethics and, through the use of examples, examines a number of
real-life ethical conflicts. The paper supports the work of FIG
Working Group 1.2 (Business Practices).
