Properties
Instance of
LicensureIntegrityandPublicProtectionPrinciple
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#LicensureIntegrityandPublicProtectionPrinciple
Applied to
Contractor license number lending to unlicensed individual
Fire sprinkler contracting firm operations
Concrete expression
Engineer F's act of allowing an unrelated unlicensed individual to use his contractor license number on another project directly undermined the protective purpose of the contractor licensing system, which — like PE licensure — exists to ensure that only qualified, accountable individuals perform regulated work
Confidence
0.88
Importance
high
Interpretation
The contractor licensing system, like the PE licensing system, serves the public interest by ensuring accountability; license lending destroys that accountability and is a violation of the integrity principle underlying all professional licensing
Invoked by
Engineer F Contractor License Revocation Omitting Engineer
Tension resolution
No legitimate competing principle justifies license lending; the revocation was an appropriate consequence and the underlying conduct reflects on professional integrity across all license types held by Engineer F
Source Evidence
Source text
