 Professional Ethics
— Dominant and
Escalating Effects on Employment &
Careers
19
Dec. 2006 |
Engineers forget that we are all bound
by a code of ethics that is set
nationally, locally, corporately and by
professional societies. IEEE members in
renewing their membership agree to abide
by the IEEE Code of Ethics. Whether we
know it or not, engineers are making
ethical decisions everyday. The wrong
choice can ruin a job, a career or even
our personal lives. The value of
engineering education, licenses, and
experience can be lost by one quick
ethical error. When is a bribe a bribe?
Where is the line for conflict of
interest? When does a joke become
harassment? This discussion will depict
the traps to avoid and difficult choices
one must make to uphold the ethical
standards of the profession and to
remain gainfully employed.
Speaker: Joseph A. Kalasky,
P.E., is a Distribution Engineer
with over 30 years experience with
Allegheny Energy. Joe's career is a
unique combination of technical and
regulatory work. He has not only set
standards for substation and line design
but has served as an industry liaison to
federal agencies with jurisdiction over
utilities such as the U.S. EPA. <<
