Declaration of Rotarians in Businesses
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.
