Civil Servants
1. The Code in context
Civil servants can be justly proud of the high standards of conduct which have characterised their service to the public over many years and enabled them to carry out the mission of the Civil Service. The Civil Service Code of Standards and Behaviour is an important element of the overall framework within which all civil servants are expected to work. It sets out the standards required of civil servants in the discharge of their duties. These standards of behaviour and values will support a high quality public service, based on high levels of personal performance and responsibility.
