Ethical Policies ICMA APWA Your organizations policies

AS A PUBLIC OFFICIAL YOU SHOULD BEHAVE ETHICALLY BECAUSE: The public trusts that you will act in the public interest, not your personal one. Is there a lot of trust today? You have a virtual monopoly over the infrastructure that supports the public’s well being Why else are you in the public sector if not to do the right thing? It’s certainly not for the money.

Serving the Public Interest Civil servants and public officials are expected to maintain and strengthen the public's trust and confidence in government, by demonstrating the highest standards of professional competence, efficiency and effectiveness, upholding the Constitution and the laws, and seeking to advance the public good at all times.

“When in doubt, tell the truth.” Mark Twain

“It takes a lifetime to build a good reputation, but you can lose it in a minute”
