RICs revises code of conduct

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors has revised its rules highlighting transparency, ethical behaviour and sustainability following a nine-week consultation with members, clients and the public. The changes, which will take effect in February 2022, include requirements for firms to encourage diversity and ensure a fair and inclusive profession, and to support all surveyors regardless of their background. They also set out refreshed requirements for professionals maintaining their skills and expertise – most importantly, including new expectations for all members to help clients meet the sustainability targets set by governments.
