TRANSLATION PROFESSIONAL ETHICS

The work ethics of an organization reflect the corporate culture fostered by

management. Noncompliance with work ethics depicts lack of organizational
vision and represents absence of long term objectives. At times, these objectives
revolve around the sole purpose of devising clever and unethical methods of
drawing money out customers pockets.
Customers must get the best return on their investment in terms of price, quality
and service. Well-formulated work ethics strengthen trust between customers
and vendors. Trust, as we all know, is the baseline for a mutually favorable, longterm relationship. However, this relationship will definitely suffer a serious setback
when customers realize that they are overcharged.
One of the easiest ways of cheating customers is to lower quantity of the
product rather than directly raising the price. In this way, customers are coaxed
into paying 20% more because the quantity of the product is reduced by 20%.
Translation business is a classic example of this unethical phenomenon. In simple
math, calculating 200 words as one page actually means charging customers
20% more than what they will pay if quantity is calculated on the basis of 250
words = 1 page.
Unfortunately, many customers may not pay attention to this tricky calculation
method. This can be easily explained in light of the following scenario: You have
a
1000-word
document
that
needs
to
be
translated.

If it is calculated on the basis of 200 words = 1 page, then you are paying the
price of 5 pages; whereas if it is calculated on the basis of 250 words = 1 page,
then you are paying the price of pages. If the price per page is equal, then you
are paying 20% extra or the price of one extra page for this document.
