Managers and Supervisors are responsible for reviewing the information provided by employees that may identify conflicts of interest and providing guidance on how to proceed. Any time a supervisor is made aware of a potential conflict of interest, whether through receipt of an Outside Activities Report or through another means, the supervisor should meet with the employee to discuss and determine whether a potential conflict may exist. See Supervisors and Managers: Review Process below for more information.
