You are responsible for making decisions in the best interests of the BC public service and the citizens of BC. Conflicts of interest raise doubts about the integrity of the BC public service and the neutrality of our decisions and actions. Your decisions and actions must not be influenced by an interest that would benefit you, a family member, or someone with whom you have a close personal relationship. According to the Standards of Conduct, you must disclose all possible conflicts of interest for review. If you engage in an activity or have a personal or financial interest that would cause a reasonable person to question your neutrality at work, you might be in a real, perceived or potential conflict of interest. It’s not possible to list everything that might be a possible conflict of interest but the old saying “When in doubt, ask” makes a great deal of sense in this area and ensures you are complying with your obligations under the Standards of Conduct. You should feel comfortable talking to your supervisor/manager or ethics advisor about any questions you may have.
