The Civil Service Values
​
Civil servants are united by shared values and a strong sense of community. The Civil Service is paid for by the taxpayer so it's important that civil servants meet the high standards the public expects.
​
Integrity: We put the obligations of public service above personal interests
​
Honesty: We always aim to be truthful and open with each other as well as those we serve and advise
​
Objectivity: We base advice and decisions on rigorous analysis of the evidence
​
Impartiality: We are politically neutral and we act solely according to the merits of the case
​
These values underpin everything we do. Whatever the role, we look for individuals who demonstrate integrity, honesty, objectivity and impartiality.
