3.05.02. An occupational therapist must safeguard his professional independence at all times and avoid any situation which could put him in conflict of interest. Without restricting the generality of the foregoing, an occupational therapist:(a) is in conflict of interest when the interests at hand are such that he may be influenced to favour certain of them over those of his client or his judgment and loyalty towards the latter may be unfavourably affected;
(b) is not free to advise a client on a given act if he can derive a direct or indirect, real or possible, personal benefit therefrom.
