Everyday Ethics: Conflicts of Interest Policy

This month, we’re focusing on our Conflicts of Interest Policy. A conflict of interest happens when your personal interests or activities might interfere with your job or get in the way of what’s best for the Company. You can take these steps to avoid conflicts of interest:

  • Tell us right away about any activity or relationship that might conflict with the Company’s interests or interfere with your job
  • Managers must also report any conflicts they become aware of
  • Report all conflicts to the Ethics & Compliance team

In many cases, we can work together to find solutions that protect both you and the Company.

Remember:

  • Never let personal or family interests affect your ability to make ethical, unbiased work decisions
  • Report any possible conflicts promptly
  • Review our Conflicts of Interest Policy on SharePoint or ask your manager or HR partner for a copy
