Properties
Instance of
Non-EngineeringExpertServicesPermissibilityinUnlicensedJurisdiction
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#Non-EngineeringExpertServicesPermissibilityinUnlicensedJurisdiction
Applied to
Non-engineering consulting services performed in State B by engineer licensed only in State C
Balancing with
Jurisdiction-Specific Ethics Compliance Obligation
Licensure Integrity and Public Protection Principle
Concrete expression
Engineer A resides and performs non-engineering consulting services in State B while licensed only in State C; the business card accurately reflects this arrangement by noting offices in State B and licensure in State C only, distributed in State C.
Confidence
0.88
Importance
high
Interpretation
An engineer may perform non-engineering consulting in a state where not licensed, provided the card accurately represents the scope of licensure and does not imply engineering practice authority in the unlicensed state.
Invoked by
Engineer A Situation 3 Multi-Jurisdiction Business Card Presenter
Tension resolution
Because the card accurately discloses the licensing limitation (licensed in State C only) and the card is distributed in State C (where licensure is held), the arrangement is compliant; the non-engineering nature of State B services removes the licensure concern.
Source Evidence
Source text
