ICCIFP - Code of Ethics
As a Certified
Construction Industry Financial Professional I recognize that a wide
range of people and businesses rely on my behavior in the execution
of my professional duties. In order that these entities may place
the greatest reliance possible on my work, I subscribe to and
support ICCIFP’s Code of Ethics and pledge to be guided by it in all
professional relationships.
As a CCIFP, I shall be honest and
forthright and act with integrity, fairness, and professional care
in all dealings with employers, employees and all other parties with
whom I may have business-related dealings.
As a CCIFP, I shall not knowingly
violate any generally accepted accounting principles, local, state
or federal law or regulation in the execution of my professional
duties.
As a CCIFP, I shall not disclose
confidential information acquired in the course of my duties unless
permitted to do so or when required by law.
As a CCIFP, I shall not engage in
any activity that may give the appearance of illegal or unethical
behavior; will practice and encourage others to practice in a
professional and ethical manner that will reflect credit on myself
and the profession, and will actively model and encourage the
integration of ethics into all aspects of the management of the
employer/enterprise.
As a CCIFP, I shall be alert to
activity of my company/employer and if I discover any activity which
I know to be illegal or fraudulent, I shall report such knowledge to
company executives in accordance with my employer’s applicable
procedures or, in the absence of established reporting procedures or
in the event such procedures are compromised, then I shall report
such knowledge to appropriate law enforcement authorities.
As a CCIFP, I shall disclose all
actual, apparent and potential conflicts of interest to all
appropriate parties who could be affected by the existence of an
actual, apparent or potential conflict. In this regard, a “conflict
of interest” is defined as a situation in which someone in a
position of trust has competing professional and/or personal
interests which may cause that individual to be unable or unwilling
to give his/her undivided allegiance to his/her employer, client, or
other entity that has placed the individual in a position of trust.
As a CCIFP, I shall maintain my
competence through continuous professional education as appropriate
to my job requirements; and promote continuous advancement in the
skills, knowledge, development and competence of employers and
employees in their own professional careers. |
