Welcome
If there is a local source in the Rochester area for all things ethical in business, this is it – home of the Rochester Area Business Ethics Foundation (RABEF).
On this site you’ll learn about the variety of events and activities RABEF sponsors:
- A local business ethics awards program that feeds into a national awards program
- Lectures, professional presentations and events that offer important information for an ethically run business
- Community events
- A scholarship program for high school students and for undergraduate college students majoring in business
- Links to ethics resources to help businesses and their managers do things the right way
- Short, timely “must read” essays that may spark new approaches to running a business in an ethical manner
While the most publicly visible activity is the annual Rochester Business Ethics Award, RABEF remains active throughout the year, premised on the belief that business ethics is not a once-a-year event but a year-round conversation.
Again, welcome and have a good, and ethical, day.
Probably the proudest moment we've had in a long time is being the recipient of the Rochester Business Ethics Award...This is really a testament because it dispels preconceived notions out there about what contactors are about. - Ray Isaac, Isaac Heating and Air Conditioning, Democrat & Chronicle, January 19, 2009
