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 spirit and to the letter 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;
  • Recognise the honour and respect due to all occupations which are useful to society;
  • Offer my vocational talent 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; and
  • Neither seek nor grant to a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally accorded to others in a business or professional relationship.
