Code of Ethics review
The Code of Ethics articulates the core values and principles of the social work profession and provides a guide to ethical social work practice.
The Review of the Code of Ethics has been underway since the end of 2009. Comprehensive feedback on the first draft of the new Code was received during the first public consultation round in April and May of this year.
The second draft of the new Code of Ethics is based upon this extensive feedback, and is now available for comment.
