English

This article compares the processes of registration of social workers in the UK and New Zealand. Its findings are that registration is linked, not to the development of codes of ethics, but to regulation based on codes of conduct. This leads to a discussion of the implications for ethical practice.

French

Se compara el proceso de colegiación de trabajadores sociales en el Reino Unido y en Nueva Zelanda. Se halla que la colegiación está ligada no al desarrollo de códigos éticos, sino a regulaciones basadas en códigos de conducta. De ahí se deriva una exploración de las implicaciones para la práctica ética.
