Given the last few years is it any surprise that ‘nurses retain [the] top ethics rating in U.S.’?
According to a Gallup survey real estate agents rank above lawyers, journalists, politicians and car salespeople, but below accountants, police officers and teachers. Gallup first measured the honesty and ethics of professions in 1976 and has updated it annually since 1990. A small number of professions have been on the list every year, while others are included periodically.
When asked “How you would rate the honesty and ethical standards of people in these different fields — very high, high, average, low or very low?” real estate agents scored as follows:
Very High: 4%
High: 20%
Average: 55%
Low: 15%
Very Low: 4%
Gallup add:
“Real estate agents (55%) and bankers (54%) garner majority-level “average” marks, while six other occupations receive average ratings from pluralities of Americans ranging from 42% to 50%. These include lawyers, accountants, business executives, clergy, judges and labor union leaders.”
The question: is that fair?
