ENGINEERING
ACTS AGAINST THE PROFESSION
The following are acts contrary to Professional Ethics:
• 1. Renounce the rights and benefits conferred and defined by the Law of Professional Practice of
Engineering in favor of its professionals
• 2. Carry out acts in bad faith with good technique or incur in faulty omissions, even when it is in
compliance with orders from authorities or constituents
• 3. Execute tasks knowing that it involves malice or intent or that is contrary to the general interest
• 4. Allow your professional services or your name to facilitate or make possible the exercise of
Electrical Engineering in its various specializations by those who are not legally authorized to do so
• 5. Advertise in a language of their own praise or in any other way that affects the dignity of the
profession
Conclusion
• Both have similar ethical codes, since they are centered on values, mission of the
organization, common good for all, oriented to decision making, one main
difference we found is that the IEEE is focused on the scientific and the other
focused on the professional area. In the professional for example not to receive or
give commissions, to injure the professional reputation of other engineers or to
give a position to someone without a professional title.
