I
will, as a fire investigator, regard myself as a member of an important
and honourable profession. |
 |
I
will conduct both my personal and official life so as to inspire
the confidence of the public. |
 |
I
will not use my profession and position of trust for personal advantage
or gain. |
 |
I
will regard my fellow investigators with the same standards as I
hold for myself. I will never betray a confidence nor otherwise
jeopardise their investigation. |
 |
I
will regard it my duty to know my work thoroughly. It is my further
duty to avail myself of every opportunity to learn more about my
profession. |
 |
I
will avoid alliances with those whose goals are inconsistent with
an honest and unbiased investigation. I will make no claim to professional
qualifications which I do not possess. |
 |
I
will share all publicity equally with my fellow investigators, whether
such publicity is favourable or unfavourable. |
 |
I
will be loyal to my superiors, to my subordinates and to the organisation
I represent. |
 |
I
will bear in mind always that I am a truth-seeker, not a case-maker;
that it is more important to protect the innocent than to convict
the guilty. |
