Contractual agreements

Looking through my contract agreement with Carnival, I thought I should pinpoint the conditions which I feel raise the issue of ethical consideration. I thought it would be a good grounding for exploring ethics in a professional work place, trying to analyse and research into the ethics part further I found the following:

7. a) ARTIST agrees to comply with and be bound by all shipboard rules. Acts of misbehaviour, malfeasance, illegality, immortality, violations of the ship's articles, rules or regulations and artists failure to perform duties to the satisfaction of CARNIVAL will be considered grounds for termination of contract.

With regard to British citizen artists, should any disciplinary action be taken by CARNIVAL toward the artist, the British Actors Equity Association will be furnished a copy of the performance evaluations and/or termination notice. CARNIVAL will be receptive to comments received by British Actors Equity Association regarding performance evaluations and/or termination notices.

9. a) ARTIST expressly gives and grants CARNIVAL the right to photograph ARTIST during the term of this agreement and to make use of and to permit others to make use of ARTISTs name, voice, pictures, photographs and other likeness for the purpose of promoting and publicising CARNIVALs vessels in any and all media.
 b) ARTIST agrees that any photos or video taping shall be for the sole purpose and use by CARNIVAL. ARTIST shall not use zany video/photo of any CARNIVAL performance of any kind for any purpose other than with the express written consent of CARNIVAL. Violation of this provision may result in termination of the agreement and damages against ARTIST as provided by applicable law.
 e) ARTIST and CARNIVAL understand the ARTIST is hired based on requirements for particular shows and as such, appearance and grooming are an important aspect of the hiring process.

13. ARTIST is required to be fluent in the English language as per CARNIVAL safety regulations. The ARTIST acknowledges his/her separate and independent duty to abide by all other oral and written rules, regulations and standards of CCL and/or the vessels operator and/or the ships command.
