Code of Ethics
QABA members recognise the true value and importance of a license and having been through a rigorous process we will always work to ensure that we never jeopardise our entitlement to hold a license. For this reason we have developed the following Code of Ethics to guide our business practices.
QUEENSLAND ADULT BUSINESS ASSOCIATION INC
CODE OF ETHICS
We, the members of the Queensland Adult Business Association Inc. believe in fair and honourable practices, and that the best interests of our industry, service providers, patrons and the community are attained, only by striving at all times to maintain high ethical standards. We aim to be recognised and trusted in exercising a high level of responsible self-regulation of our industry. We are committed to working with all stakeholders in establishing best practice.
We ascribe to the following statements of ethics:
The independence of operation of sexual service providers is recognised as absolute, as is their right to determine:
- Where they provide service;
- When they provide services;
- To whom they provide services;
- What services they provide; and
- What they charge for services.
Sexual service providers, patrons and staff are entitled to be treated with respect, fairness and confidentiality at all times.
Sexual service providers will be encouraged at all times to accept their responsibilities for operating in a way which is fair to others and does not place themselves, their clients or others at risk.
Only safe sexual practices will be permitted on licensed brothel premises.
In our businesses we seek to foster a culture of respect, trust and integrity.
Suppliers will be treated fairly and honestly.
The premises we operate will be maintained in a good condition for the safety of staff, sexual service providers, visitors and patrons.
In the communities of which we are members, we will act responsibly and in compliance with the law.
