Water, wastewater and public health laboratories produce data that directly impacts public health. It is important that this data be accurate, reliable and defensible. Laboratory Ethics programs provide guidance for decision making. Their focus on data
integrity ensures that data accuracy, completeness, and consistency is maintained over its entire life cycle. Ethics programs analysts determine if practices are acceptable and conform to professional standards.
