Code of Ethics

Share |

HR/NY requires that its members abide by a strict Code of Ethics and Conduct. Our Code consists of the following tenets:

    
  • Maintain the highest standards of professional and personal conduct.
  • Strive for personal growth in the field of human resource management.
  • Support the Society's and Association's goals and objectives for development of the human resource management profession.
  • Encourage employers to make the fair and equitable treatment of all employees a primary concern.
  • Strive to make employers profitable both in monetary terms and through the support and encouragement of effective employment and human resource practices.
  • Instill in employees and the public a sense of confidence about the conduct and intentions of corporations.
  • Uphold the laws and regulations relating to corporation activities.
  • Not seek special privilege resulting from any position of office, regular or volunteer, which is held.
  • Maintain the confidentiality of privileged information.
  • Use membership and Association resources (e.g., membership directory) for mutually beneficial networking purposes, and refrain from uninvited business solicitations.
  • Improve the public's understanding of the role of human resource management.

This Code of Ethics and Conduct for members of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and HR/NY has been adopted to promote and maintain the highest standards of personal conduct and professional standards among its members. By joining SHRM and HR/NY, a member espouses this Code, thereby assuring public confidence in the integrity and service of human resource management professionals.

You may direct questions about this Code to the President of HR/NY, or to the Chief Executive Officer of SHRM located in Alexandria, VA. Visit our Member Questions page for contact information.
