This course teaches employees how to recognize, avoid, and respond to those risks. Upon clearly explaining conflicts of interest, this course overviews the wide range of conflicts in the context of showing how they can damage trust, create legal risk, and harm business relationships. By spotlighting situations where personal interests could influence work decisions, including three scenarios – Vendor Selection, Gifts from Vendors, and Workplace Relationships – this comprehensive course assures employees will learn how to recognize conflicts of interest and how to respond to them in a fair and ethical way.
