“It is the responsibility of the each staff member to inform supervisors of any outside employment either already held or secured while the individual is employed at kristi house. For those individuals securing outside employment, advance notice in writing is required and the program reserves the right to approve or disapprove of such additional employment. The agency will consider the nature of outside work and whether such additional work will interfere or be in conflict with the individual's ability to conscientiously and properly carry out his/her duties and responsibilities to the agency. Outside activities of a voluntary or non-paid nature will be considered similarly to those of regular employments, and the procedures stated above are in effect in these instances. Any activity which, which may present a conflict of interest and interferes with the functioning of kristi house, must be reported to supervisory personnel and written permission must be granted for the employee to engage in that activity. The board or directors should recuse themselves from voting on matters where their objectivity would be compromised by any personal or financial benefit to themselves, business partners, friends, or family members.

Board members should report conflict of interests for themselves or other board members to the board president who will review the issue at the next executive meeting.
