職業服務專注以下各點：

Vocational Service focuses on:

• 堅守並促進在各職業領域上高道德標準，包括公平對待僱主、員工、同事、競爭對手及大眾。

• Adherence to, and promotion of, the highest ethical standards in all occupations, including fair treatment of employers, employees, associates, competitors, and the public.

• 表彰所有值得表揚有用的職業，不僅僅只是你自己及扶輪社員所從事的工作。

• The recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations, not just your own or those that are pursued by Rotarians.

• 貢獻你職業上的專長以解決社會問題並符合社區之需求。

• The contribution of your vocational talents to solving the problems of society and meeting the needs of the community.

在十月當中，要鼓勵扶輪社員們去著重這個扶輪的基本要素(職業服務)。在扶輪社內或地區中討論職業服務使服務計劃不但使扶輪社員促進其道德標準及職業技巧並在其社區內發掘人才。職業服務月是開啟整年度職業服務活動的一個機會，其範圍是從扶輪研討到頒贈獎項給社區的計劃。

During October, Rotarians are encouraged to focus on this essential element of Rotary.  Discussions among clubs and districts on Vocational Service can lead to projects that not only develop the ethical consciousness and vocational skills of Rotarians but also the talents within their communities.  Vocational Service month is an opportunity to begin year-long Vocational Service activities, ranging from Rotary discussions to awards to community projects.

□ 專心致力於十月份的第一次例會去檢視「第二服務部門(職業服務)」，包括四大考驗以及「扶輪社員之事業及專業宣言」。在增廣社員的認識之後，引導他們為年度剩下的歲月去投入規劃計劃之列。

□  Devote the first meeting in October to examining the second Avenue of Service, including The 4-Way Test and The Declaration of Rotarians in Business and the Professions.  After expanding members’ awareness, solicit their input in planning projects for the remainder of the year.

□舉辦一個『迷你職業分類演說』Mini-classification talk，每位以5分鐘時間來說明有關他(她)的職業。在每次例會開時安排一位主講者，直至每一位都介紹過他們的行業為止。其目的：是在促進扶輪社員間的職業認識並協助他們表彰所有值得表揚有用的職業。

□  Introduce a “mini-classifications talk” series in which each member gives a five-minute talk on his or her vocation. Schedule one speaker for the beginning of each meeting until everyone has made a presentation.  The purpose: promote vocational awareness among Rotarians and help them recognize the worthiness of all useful occupations.

□ 頒贈一種職業獎項給社區內某人─他堅守著非常高道德標準而且已有了傑出職業的成就。在社區內推廣這種表揚，以及考慮使它成為每年十月份的活動。

□  Present a vocational award to someone in the community who has exemplified outstanding professional achievement while maintaining very high ethical standards.  Promote the presentation within the community, and consider making it an annual October event.

□ 邀請專家到社區來作有關職業需求之簡報，並擬定計劃以回應那些需求。可能實施的計劃可集中在提供青年人職業之咨詢及輔導小型企業或提供工作坊以使員工能獲得新的技術。

□  Invite experts to give a presentation on the vocational needs of the community and develop a project in response to those needs. Possible projects could focus on developing character, providing career information to youth, mentoring small businesses, or organizing workshops that provide employees with new skills.
