Board members are required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement annually. The President and Secretary of the Board oversee compliance with this requirement. All Board members with an identified conflict of interest abstain from Board discussions and votes when applicable. Employees with purchasing authority and/or ability to influence purchasing decisions are assigned the conflict of interest disclosure course (COI) which must be completed on line. Periodically through the year, the entity's corporate responsibility contact person (with the help of the entity's learning management system coordinator) sends department managers a list of employees who have not yet completed their COI so they can remind the employees and ensure the employees have time in their schedule to complete the required course. Resolution of any conflicts that are disclosed must be documented and kept on file at the entity. Supervisors verify required course completion prior to year end. |
