                       ETHICS IN PUBLIC SERVICE











                        Introduction






                              For most people, ethics are aspirational guidelines for how we
                              ought to or want to conduct ourselves.  Public service entails
                              additional legal requirements that set forth minimum

                              standards of behavior and codes of conduct. When abiding by
                              ethics laws, remember that public perceptions are  as

                              important as compliance with technical rules.
