FEcomS Member’s Code of Conduct:

In the course of their activities within and associated with the Society, Members should:

• Act with due skill, care and diligence and with proper regard for professional standards.
• Seek to sustain and enhance their proficiencies, indulding in only professional tasks for which they are competent, and disclosing relevant limitations of competence.
• Follow proper procedures, maintaining adequate records and ensuring appropriate rigour in their work.
• Accept appropriate responsibility for their actions.
• Avoid where possible real or perceived conflict of interest, and advise affected parties when such conflicts arise.
• Avoid actions that compel others to take inappropriate steps, or place undue constraints on others.
• Raise a concern about a danger, risk, malpractice or wrongdoing which affects others (‘blow the whistle’), and support a colleague or any other person to whom there is a duty of care who in good faith raises any such concern.
• Not seek to represent the Society, or to issue public statements on its behalf, without the express authority of the Board of Management.
