Conflicts
of interest, or the appearance of such, may compromise UCAR's integrity,
its standing with sponsors, and its status as a tax-exempt organization
and must, therefore, be scrupulously avoided. Employees may not
use their position with UCAR to make a profit or obtain any other
personal advantage, either for themselves, their families, or any
other person or entity in whom or in which they have a financial
or other vested interest. Potential and actual conflicts of interest
must be managed so that UCAR's mission is not to compromised, research
conducted at UCAR is free from bias or perceived bias, the investment
of the public is protected, and confidence in the integrity of UCAR's
activities is maintained. The purpose of this policy is to provide
guidance to UCAR employees on their involvement in activities that
may result in such conflicts and to comply with Federal government
requirements.
