<P> For example, a lay member of the public should not be held responsible for failing to act to save a car crash victim because they could not give an appropriate emergency treatment . Though, they are responsible for attempting to get help for the victim . This is because they do not have the relevant knowledge and experience . In contrast, a fully trained doctor (with the correct equipment) would be capable of making the correct diagnosis and carrying out appropriate procedures . Failure of a doctor to not help at all in such a situation would generally be regarded as negligent and unethical . Though, if a doctor helps and makes a mistake that is considered negligent and unethical, there could be egregious repercussions . An untrained person would only be considered to be negligent for failing to act if they did nothing at all to help and is protected by the "Good Samaritan" laws if they unintentionally caused more damage and possible loss of life . </P> <P> A business may approach a professional engineer to certify the safety of a project which is not safe . While one engineer may refuse to certify the project on moral grounds, the business may find a less scrupulous engineer who will be prepared to certify the project for a bribe, thus saving the business the expense of redesigning . </P> <P> On a theoretical level, there is debate as to whether an ethical code for a profession should be consistent with the requirements of morality governing the public . Separatists argue that professions should be allowed to go beyond such confines when they judge it necessary . This is because they are trained to produce certain outcomes which may take moral precedence over other functions of society . For example, it could be argued that a doctor may lie to a patient about the severity of his or her condition if there is reason to believe that telling the patient would cause so much distress that it would be detrimental to his or her health . This would be a disrespect of the patient's autonomy, as it denies the patient information that could have a great impact on his or her life . This would generally be seen as morally wrong . However, if the end of improving and maintaining health is given a moral priority in society, then it may be justifiable to contravene other moral demands in order to meet this goal . Separatism is based on a relativist conception of morality that there can be different, equally valid, moral codes that apply to different sections of society and differences in codes between societies (see moral relativism). If moral universalism is ascribed to, then this would be inconsistent with the view that professions can have a different moral code, as the universalist holds that there is only one valid moral code for all. . </P> <P> As attending college after high school graduation becomes a standard in the lives of young people, colleges and universities are becoming more business - like in their expectations of the students . Although people have differing opinions about if it is effective, surveys state that it is the overall goal of the university administrators . Setting up a business - like atmosphere helps students get adjusted from a more relaxed nature, like high school, towards what will be expected of them in the business world upon graduating from College . </P>

The type of behaviour that would be regarded as ethical is
