“It is imperative that employees of the council conduct themselves with a degree of honesty and integrity which is beyond reproach or even suspicion. While it is not possible to anticipate every situation and prescribe a precise rule for each, it is possible to set forth certain basic, general principles to be observed by employees at all times. The essence of this policy is that employees shall always deal with others doing, or seeking to do, business with the council in a manner that excludes all consideration of personal advantage. Accordingly, every employee of the council is subject to the following policy: interest in any other business organizations employees of the council or members of their immediate families shall not have any interest, direct or indirect, in any other business which in any degree conflicts with the employee's primary obligations to the council. In this regard, employees or members of their immediate families should not possess significant financial interest in, coercive remuneration from,any business that does, or seeks to do, business with the council. An employee must not proceed with any action if it is not clearly in ompliance with these criteria. In addition, if an employee believes (or is unsure of what to do) that the actions of anyone at the council are unethical or expose tlfe council or its employees to liability or disrepute, the employee should report the situation by contacting his or her manager, the scout executive, or council president. This includes any disclosure of confidential information to anyone who is not an employee or to an employee whose job duties do not require access to that confidential information. Acting with integrity when conducting business is not an occasional requirement. The council expects and demands that its employees act consistently with the highest ethical principles. The code of conduct sets forth the fundamental principles, policies, and procedures that govern the conduct of employees. It does not create any rights for any employee. The code does not constitute an employment contract or an assurance of continued employment. The council may modify or repeal the provisions of the code or adopt a new code whenever it deems appropriate, with or without notice. Every employee must acknowledge that he or she has received and read the code and will comply with its terms. All employees must become familiar with the code and conduct themselves strictly in compliance with it and with the council's bylaws, policies, and procedures.”
