The
Four-Way Test
From
the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned
with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives.
One of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of
business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by
Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when
he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing
bankruptcy.

|
This
24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional
lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all
relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is
credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The
Four-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and
published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions:
"Of
the things we think, say or do:
-
Is
it the TRUTH?
-
Is
it FAIR to all concerned?
-
Will
it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
-
Will
it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
