Duty of care，法律术语，翻译为“注意义务”，注意义务是行为人在做出某种行为时，应能预见到自己的行为有可能产生的某种损害后果，并且做好防范措施，避免损害后果的发生。

英文释义：A duty of care is the legal responsibility of a person or organization to avoid any behaviors or omissions that could reasonably be foreseen to cause harm to others. 

“For example, a duty of care is owed by an accountant in correctly preparing a customer’s tax returns, to minimize the chance of an IRS audit. Similarly, manufacturers owe a duty of care to consumers in making sure that their products are safe for public use.” (legaldictionary.net/duty-of-care/) 

例如，对于会计师而言，注意义务为采用正确的方式为客户制备税务申报表，尽可能避免国税局对其进行审计。同样的，制造商对其客户负有注意义务，确保其产品公共使用的安全性。

参考双语例句：

At the practical level, however, we consider that whether or not it may be said that bankers owe any contractual, fiduciary or general duty of care to their clients in this particular matter, it would be prudent banking practice for bankers to advise their corporate account holders that, as the law stands at the moment, it will only be the use of words indicating that the signatory signs for or on behalf of a principal or in a representative character which will be certain to avoid the personal liability to the payee of the authorized signatory on a dishonoured company cheque.

但是在实际层面上，我们认为不论银行在这具体事宜上是否对客户负有任何合约责任、受信责任或一般责任，审慎的业务常规是由银行知会其公司客户根据现行有效的法律，只有使用某些字眼显示签署人是代委託人或是以代表的身分签署支票，获授权签署人方可在支票不兑现时肯定可以避免对受款人负有个人法律责任。

The lessons accumulated, by those who witnessed or survived the successive massacres and atrocities of the last hundred years, and those who study and think seriously about them today, cannot but lead to this humanist acknowledgement: in the roots of those juridical institutions (mandates, trusteeship, international administration of territories) we detect the belated consciousness of the duty of care for the human kind.

过去几百年里，多少人曾目睹接连不断的屠杀和暴行，多少人曾幸免于难，如今人们又对这些事件进行认真研究和思考，由此积累的教训，不能不让人得出这一人文主义认识：(委任统治、托管及领土国际管理的)司法机构之所以问世，正是因为人们意识到有责任关爱人类，尽管意识到这一点已经过晚。
