“It is the conversation u.s.'s policy that all employees avoid any conflict between their personal interests and those of the company. The purpose of this policy is to ensure that the company's honesty and integrity, and therefore its reputation, are not compromised. The fundamental principle guiding this policy is that no employee should have, or appear to have, personal interests or relationships that actually or potentially conflict with the best interests of the company. It is the employee's responsibility to report any actual or potential conflict that may exist between the employee (and the employee's immediate family) and the company.”
“All information is available to the public upon their request.”
“The organization has a separate commitee to evaluate need for audits and review of accountant work.”
