While different from Academic Conduct policies, professional conduct policies are still tied to ethical behaviour. Several professions have very specific professional codes of conduct that people in those professions must abide by to become members of that profession and remain in it. Even if your job or career does not fall into these specific codes of conduct, most employers require their workers to follow codes of conduct that may be applied to behaviour during and outside work hours. Unethical and/or unprofessional behaviour can result in job loss or worse.
