Ethics, Regulation and the Professionalisation of Occupations

该项目涉及专业标准理事会和应用哲学和公共道德中心之间的合作，旨在了解如何最好地促进一系列“专业化”职业的高道德标准。该项目的主要关注点是自我监管和其他形式的监管之间的关系，包括“元监管”;以及在大型组织中运营的专业人员面临的道德问题。该项目涉及“应用哲学”的创新工作，扩展了当前对职业道德的理解，特别是在澳大利亚的环境中，对消费者和更广泛的社会具有重要的经济和社会效益。

This project, which involves collaboration between the Professional Standards Council and the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics, aims to understand how best to promote high ethical standards in a range of 'professionalising' occupations. Among the key concerns of the project are the relation between self-regulation and other forms of regulation, including 'meta-regulation'; and the ethical issues facing professionals operating in large organisations. This project involves innovative work in 'applied philosophy', extending current understanding of professional ethics, particularly in the Australian setting, with important economic and social benefits to consumers and the broader society.
