Our Ethical Principles At Work
Opportunities Unlimited, we believe in six, basic ethical
principles:
1. We are always truthful. We are truthful in all our
endeavors, and honest and forthright with one another, the
individuals we serve, families, community partners and all other
stakeholder groups. Also, we serve as responsible stewards for
public and private funds.
2. We treat others fairly and respectfully. We treat one
another with dignity and fairness, appreciating the diversity of our
work and the uniqueness of each individual. We provide supports and
services designed to meet the needs of all individuals, with an
emphasis on promoting choice, inclusion, growth and development. We
promote inclusion and the equitable treatment of all people
including those receiving supports, staff, friends, families and the
public.
3. We communicate openly. We build confidence in our
organization and ourselves through open communication. However, we
respect the privacy of persons served and protect each individual’s
right to confidentiality.
4. We are committed to teamwork and putting the mission of the
company ahead of ourselves. We recognize our responsibilities as
team members on the teams that help us achieve successful employment
for the individuals we serve-teams of co-workers, employers,
referral sources, families, and other community resources.
5. We are each personally prepared for work and disciplined in
serving our customers and co-workers. We serve as role models
for persons served and act courteously and properly at all times.
6. We take responsibility for our actions. We each abide by
the highest standards of excellence that promote outcomes of quality
for all people. We obey the laws of the land working to make our
communities more productive, and act with pride and confidence as
representatives of Work Opportunities Unlimited.
