Rotary Etiquette and Membership Guidelines
Success in Rotary depends on the active participation of each member
Rotary Is You
Members should wear their Rotary pin during all Rotary activities and dress in smart casuals. Mobile phones should be on silent mode during meetings.
Etiquette
Members receive an international ID upon registration, allowing connection with Rotarians worldwide.
Rotary ID
Members are required to maintain a minimum attendance of 75%. Efforts should be made to attend as close to 100% as possible. Attendance sheets should be signed, and any make-ups recorded.
Attendance
Attendance at other Rotary meetings within 14 days of a missed meeting counts towards attendance. Make-Up cards should be returned to the club secretary for credit.

Guiding principles of a Rotarian .
These principles have been developed over the years to provide Rotarians with a strong, common purpose and direction. They serve as a foundation for our relationships with each other and the action we take in the world
Object of Rotary
The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:
The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service
High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society
The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life
The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service
The Four-Way Test
The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and Rotarians recite it at club meetings: Of the things we think, say or do
Avenues of Service
We channel our commitment to service at home and abroad through five Avenues of Service, which are the foundation of club activity.
- Club Service focuses on making clubs strong. A thriving club is anchored by strong relationships and an active membership development plan.
- Vocational Service calls on every Rotarian to work with integrity and contribute their expertise to the problems and needs of society. Learn more in An Introduction to Vocational Service and the Code of Conduct.
- Community Service encourages every Rotarian to find ways to improve the quality of life for people in their communities and to serve the public interest. Learn more in Communities in Action: A Guide to Effective Projects.
- International Service exemplifies our global reach in promoting peace and understanding. We support this service avenue by sponsoring or volunteering on international projects, seeking partners abroad, and more.
- Youth Service recognizes the importance of empowering youth and young professionals through leadership development programs such as Interact, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, and Rotary Youth Exchange.
