Today no one doubts that the special responsibility in the development and functioning of Ukraine is given to civil servants, who, based on the constitutional enshrinement of their rights and responsibilities, are obliged to represent the state and perform its tasks and functions. Among the large number of corruption grounds, the conflict of interests takes an important place, which is reasonably due to the problematic historical past that took place in Ukraine, when citizens subconsciously established the rule of solving problems with the help of so-called “their” people, when the distribution of positions was carried out on the principle of "family ties", and important decisions were made in favor of the interests of individuals. All this had a very negative impact on the effective activities of civil servants, undermined the authority of public administration, destroyed the trust of citizens in the state as a whole, and therefore is an extremely important issue in the current implementation of anticorruption policy, building civil society and bringing Ukraine closer to European norms and standards. The civil service is a special institution of power and law, which performs the functions of public administration in the preparation and implementation of management decisions through which the implementation of public policy. As a complex and specific type of managerial activity, the civil service makes specific requirements for future civil servants depending on their positions for which they apply and the nature and content of the work they will perform. The legislation provides a fairly wide list of professional, organizational, moral and ethical, cultural qualities, norms and principles of conduct, which should be the image of a civil servant.
