- You must inform your manager if a third party offers to pay or reimburse the costs related to your travel or attendance at a conference or other event.
- Managers are encouraged to seek guidance from the conflict of interest advisor on whether or not to accept an offer of travel. The situation will be assessed to determine if the offer poses a risk of real, apparent, or potential conflict of interest, or whether it may have, or give the appearance of having, influence on our objectivity in carrying out our official duties.
