Disclaimer: it's not really a good idea to put sbin directories in the
PATH of a normal user.  Particularly not (/usr/sbin) on Fedora or Red
Hat systems as it could interfere with consolehelper if done
incorrectly.
However, the way you're doing it should be perfectly fine (/sbin last):
  export PATH=${PATH}:/sbin


You can add stuff to the system-wide profile by creating an executable
text file in /etc/profile.d/ with the appropriate name (*.sh for bash,
*.csh for csh).  Just make sure you don't remove the line in your
~/.bash_profile script which includes /etc/profile.
