Decision Question
Should Engineer A treat his 25-year non-disclosure of his autism diagnosis as ethically permissible under the NSPE Code's deception provision, or does the duration and professional context of the omission cross a materiality threshold that triggers an affirmative disclosure obligation?
Focus
Engineer A's obligation regarding non-disclosure of his autism diagnosis under the NSPE Code's deception provision, given ADA protections and 25-year competent career
Option1
Continue non-disclosure of autism diagnosis, treating it as a personal medical matter outside the jurisdictional scope of the NSPE Code's deception provision, on the grounds that the ADA shields it from compelled disclosure and the 25-year performance record rebuts any materiality claim
Option2
Proactively disclose the autism diagnosis to the current employer, treating the 25-year duration of non-disclosure as having crossed a relational materiality threshold that the Code's honesty norm requires correcting, while invoking ADA protections to guard against adverse action
Option3
Seek a formal advisory opinion from the state licensing board or NSPE BER clarifying whether the Code's deception provision applies to ADA-protected conditions before making any disclosure decision, thereby discharging the duty of good-faith ethical inquiry without prematurely disclosing or definitively withholding
Role Label
Engineer A
