Ethics Guide
The following guidelines will help you identify some of the most likely ethical situations that you may face during your career at the Foundation. It will also recommend the proper conduct should you encounter any of these situations. However, this guideline cannot anticipate every circumstance you may face.
Always remember the ethics rule of thumb: do the right thing—and if in doubt about the right thing to do, stop and ask.
The links below briefly describe ethics reminders.
- General Business Conduct
- Kickbacks and Gratuities
