“The organization regularly and consistently monitors compliance with its conflict of interest policy. Its trustees and officers review the policy annually and sign a form that indicates their compliance with the policy. All employees sign a form that acknowledges their compliance with the policy. Policy is explained to new employees when they are hired. When signing the form, each person discloses any situation that may give rise to a conflict of interest. Policy is included in organization's staff handbook, and staff are referred to that resource regularly for relevant policies. If a situation arises at any time where an employee has a personal, familial, or business relationship that could reasonably give rise to a possible conflict of interest, that employee informs the president; who then follows the guidelines of the policy for determining if a conflict exists and how to proceed. If such a situation arises for a trustee or the president, the chair of the board is informed and the chair carries out the defined process.”
