ABSTRACT

Good professional ethics get us more recognize some special emotions and responsibilities for which each professions and professionalism are appropriate. I think Virtue ethics can explain some professional roles and purposes with which each professions and professionalism are inconsistent, so that Virtue ethics might be at work as a foundation of professions and professionalism. But consequentialism and Kantian ethics is might be less at work about it. So they tried to revise their theories themselves. However still their theories can not explain friendship and Love with which good ethical theory should be in keeping. Certainty, Universal ethical theory might be able to illustrate the friendship which is so important to our life and professional roles which is so important to our profession. I argued the value and friendship which is inherent in professional roles is dependent on the values in universal ethics. And for that, I suggest who good professional worker as good model is on standpoint of virtue ethics.
