This essay will analyze ethics within the profession, which is intended for young students in the process of becoming professionals to meet a professional ethical profile.
Having ethical behavior implies being responsible, honest, objective, loyal, honest, and fair, since it will reinforce the basis of good social service. It is important that we as students become aware of our actions since it will govern what we will obtain, as it says, what is sown is reaped.
To face and improve this society of disinterested professionals is simply knowing how to act with principles and values.

What is professional ethics? What are the consequences of not having ethics in the exercise of the profession? What is reverse ethics? How to be true professionals?
There is a main factor that intervenes in human behavior such as: personality. Personality is what defines the quality of a person, and the person in charge of verifying that quality is ethics.
Ethics is a discipline in charge of making us reflect deeply on the type of behavior we have before society in order to improve those incorrect behaviors by offering us norms, values and principles.
The word ethical is for many people something of no importance since it does not qualify their personality and does not govern the way of acting, but for others it is the basis for it in order to achieve their objectives and they make the word something special.
Its objective is to provide the elements required to structure a common ethical procedure in the world of professional practice. It is fed from two sources: ethics of professions and professional criteria that scientific disciplines provide.
One cannot speak of professional ethics unless one first understands the definition of profession. A profession is a social human activity through which a specific service is provided to society, and it is provided in an institutionalized manner, so that professionals claim the right to provide it exclusively to society, considering anyone who wishes to exercise it as an intruder. from outside the profession (Emilio, 2006)
Now, ethics within the profession has the purpose that the individual assumes his moral values (justice, responsibility and honesty) mainly and acts according to the principles established by his code of ethics that guarantees a common good.
As Martin mentions, 2013 “ethics is intrinsically related to professions, which are ultimately human practices that are born and organized, as already stated, to provide a specific good to society; to contribute, through the fulfillment of a moral duty -of the internal good that gave rise to them- to the progressive and limited achievement of individual and collective human happiness "
There are two types of professionals: he who takes the initiative and he who waits. A professional who takes the initiative is one who takes into account the principles and values learned during childhood, the principles established by his code of ethics to carry out his work and thus obtain better performance.
The advantages of belonging to this type of professional is that it will guide us to success, generating social recognition, job opportunities, leadership capacity and a link with knowledge, that is, with knowing how to do, knowing how to be and knowing how to compete.
These types of professionals obtain ethical professional conduct, fulfilling the purpose of generating a common good.
Remember that there are three principles that will keep us within the professional margin such as: principle of beneficence, principle of autonomy and principle of justice.
On the contrary, a professional who waits is one who has to be directed to carry out his activities, that is, one who does not take initiative, as well as his values and principles acquired during childhood.
Being a professional who hopes will bring disadvantages like being one of the bunch; that does not comply with the fundamental principles of any profession. By failing to fully comply with these principles, the practitioner refers to reverse ethics.
The inverse ethic is to have ethics but without being ethical. What does it mean? It means that the professional, as previously mentioned, does not take importance from what was acquired during childhood, which leads him to have no ethics and thus to be a person. professional not entirely professional, and therefore cannot fully comply with the established principles.
Some authors have linked reverse ethics with unethical behavior, giving it a wrong definition, generating confusion and an isolation from the true.
So reverse ethics is about behavior isolated from the principles and values acquired during childhood.
To continue understanding, reverse ethics over time is generated in institutions where there is no real commitment to generate professionals with a responsible ethical profile.
Due to the causes, the professional, having no principles and values, becomes corrupt, irresponsible, unjust… due to not being able to obtain or achieve what he wants.
This attitude of resistance to professional ethics translates into displacement, neglect, stubbornness and intentional inefficiency, especially as a response to the tasks that their bosses entrust to them. These attitudes could affect the principle of beneficence (Silvana, 2003)
For this reason, it is understood that the attitude is responsible for establishing productive social relationships that will benefit in having appropriate organized behaviors, since it will also cause the company where the work will be carried out to be identified par excellence.
So, to have a positive attitude, motivation is important, which will drive our activity towards certain goals. Guided by the principles of codes of ethics plus moral values, we will be excellent professionals.
Then the teaching of ethics in the process when exercising the profession must be constant, including the factors that are associated with the behavior in order to improve and / or modify them, but for this it is important to recognize it.
THANKS
This essay has been carried out with the intention that young people who are in the process of exercising a profession understand that ethics is a fundamental factor in order to contribute to a social good. Fulfilling the framework of the research topic "professional ethics vs. reverse ethics". I would like to express my thanks to the Tuxtla Gutiérrez Technological Institution for having trained professionals who fulfill the teaching role, mainly Dr. Mario Alberto Zedillo Osorio for the inspiration regarding understanding the importance of professional ethical behavior.
CONCLUSION
There are, there will be situations where ethical behavior will be at stake, but there will also be professionals committed to excellence and good to society because we are in the hands of judged teachers.
It is important to recognize that a true professional is one who respects everything that produces a good.
As mentioned by Morín, 2005 “Ethics is, for all individuals who face this challenge responsibly, an expression of the basic ethical imperative that is an imperative of religation: of religation with others, with the community, with society, with ancestors and ultimately with the cosmos. Because «… the more autonomous we are, the more we must assume the uncertainty and the restlessness and the more we need religation»
