What must be included in the Code of Ethics established by ASET?

The inclusion of standards of practice for members in the Code of Ethics established by ASET is essential as it sets clear expectations for professional conduct and responsibilities. These standards serve as a framework for ethical decision-making and help to maintain the integrity of the profession. By defining acceptable behaviors and practices, the Code of Ethics not only guides members in their professional actions but also protects the public and upholds the reputation of the field.

Establishing standards of practice ensures that all members are aware of the necessary competencies, responsibilities, and ethical considerations in their work, ultimately fostering professionalism and accountability within the organization. This requirement aligns with the overarching goal of professional bodies to promote high standards and protect the interests of those they serve.
