1.1.3 Social Responsibilities: Professional Ethic and Disposal of Products

The topic of social (corporate) responsibilities is hot in society; designers and organisations

have to observe without exception. It is important that designers be aware of the consequences

that their designs may lead to the product users and society as a whole. The social

responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

(a) Safety of the products,

(b) Compliance with recognized professional ethics, and

Ingredients of Professional Ethics

Many people dispose products simply because they no longer like or use the products. Such

disposal behaviour however results in environmental problems and conservation of resources.

In Hong Kong, unwanted matters are collected from households and disposed currently to the

three major landfill sites. Unfortunately, due to the continuous growth in wastes, Hong Kong

is running out of landfill space in an unexpectedly high rate. In order to address the issue, one

of the possible ways is recycling, i.e. tackling the problem at its source.
