✦ Synopsis

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the content of a number of codes of ethics* from the tourism industry. To accomplish this objective, the researchers analysed 414 statements from 40 codes of ethics based upon a theoretical framework. This framework was developed using ethical theory and locus of analysis (LOA) constructs. Six categories emerged from the data and were juxtaposed with the ethics-LOA theoretical framework. The results of this study demonstrate that codes of ethics are generally deontological in nature. Implications of this ethical orientation are discussed and recommendations for future code development are provided.
