IPR - Institute of Public Relations
integrity - competence - confidentiality - spreading awareness

IABC - International Association of Business Communicators
human rights - rule of law - sensitivity to cultural norms
communications - legal, ethical, good taste
sensitive, accurate, fair
honest, accurate, prompt, support free speech, law abiding, no gifts

PRSA - Public Relations Society of America
performance, professionalism, ethical conduct
enforcement eliminated


These codes of ethics seem to be somewhat similiar. They deal with the PR professional practicing ethical honesty, professionalism and fairness in good taste with society and cultural norms. The main difference is that the prsa does not have an actual enforcement policy which makes it hard to determine the line between what is ethical PR practices and what is not.
