Properties
Instance of
ContractorLicenseNumberLendingProhibition
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#ContractorLicenseNumberLendingProhibition
Applied to
Fire sprinkler contracting firm contractor license
Unlicensed individual's use of contractor license number
Balancing with
Licensure Integrity and Public Protection Principle
Concrete expression
Engineer F allowed an unlicensed individual unrelated to his contracting firm to use his contractor license number on a separate project, resulting in revocation of the contractor's license — conduct that reflects on professional integrity regardless of whether it directly implicated the PE license
Confidence
0.9
Importance
high
Interpretation
Allowing an unrelated, unlicensed individual to use one's contractor license number is a violation of the protective purpose of the licensing system and reflects on the engineer's professional character, even when the PE license itself is not the license at issue
Invoked by
Engineer F Contractor License Revocation Omitting Engineer
Tension resolution
There is no legitimate competing principle that would justify license lending to an unrelated unlicensed individual; the revocation was an appropriate regulatory consequence of conduct that undermined public protection
Source Evidence
Source text
Engineer F's contractor's license was revoked because he allowed an unlicensed individual who was unrelated to his contracting firm to use the contractor license number on another project.
