Professionalism and Professional Ethics in Tigray Region

Abstract

Ethics and professionalism are inescapable parts of everyday practice for everyone at any level of civil service hierarchy. Hence, the objective of this journal article is to critically evaluate the Professionalism and Professional Ethics in Tigray Region. For this reason, the relevant data was collected both from primary and secondary data sources. Finally, the factors that impede the implementation of Professionalism and Professional Ethics were identified and the discussion was concluded that regardless of the institutional framework in-place and the establishment of anticorruption institutions, the application of professionalism and professional ethics was highly inhibited by lack of civil service neutrality, lack of district level decentralized anti-corruption institutions at Zones, Woredas and Sub Cities and poor accountability system.
