Key things to know and do
Our guide on conflict of interest – key things to know and do is about key obligations, processes and risk mitigation strategies.
It may be useful to you in developing your organisation’s policy and other strategies.
Model policy and forms
We offer model documents to assist, including:
- Model conflict of interest policy
- Model conflict of interest declaration and management plan form
- Developing a conflict of interest management plan
- Model declaration of private interests (DOPI) form.
Our model policy includes key risk mitigation strategies for dealing with conflicts of interest when they arise.
Boards
Our model conflict of interest policy (employees) does not apply to board members (directors).
This is because, whilst they are based on similar principles, the requirements for employees and board members differ.
If your organisation has a board, it should also have a separate conflict of interest policy for board members.
