“Board members must disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest annually. Should they become aware of an actual or potential conflict of interest, they are expected to recuse themselves from the discussion and any decisions made on the matter. The scout executive has the responsibility of monitoring potential conflicts of interest. Board members are trained about the policy at the annual board orientation meeting and the policy is also included in the bylaws. Employees are informed of the policy in the bylaws and the employee handbook. If there is a suspected conflict of interest issue, the scout executive would inform the board president and the boy scouts of america hr specialists (if appropriate) and the issue would be investigated further and the proper action would be taken as deemed necessary.”

“The council president appoints a compensation and benefits review committee. It considers the salary of the scout executive based on performance, as reviewed by the board, using the national council salary plan. The national council salary plan is the result of the bsa's national office compensation studies conducted specifically for boy scouts of america officers and employees. The compensation and benefits review committee documents its deliberations and recommendations. Officer compensation was last reviewed by the committee in 2024. The compensation and benefits review committee also reviews the salaries of the employees of the council. The scout executive makes a recommendation based on a local salary study for administrative staff. Professional salary increases are based on recommendations from the national council. Boy scouts of america salary plan studies are based on studies conducted for the usa. With the approval of the annual budget, the salaries are approved.”

“Financial statements are available as prescribed by law. A staff member contacts the person requesting access and makes an appointment for that person to come to the office. The visitor is permitted to read the documents, but not to make copies or take from the premises.”
