What are examples of a conflict of commitment?
A conflict of commitment may exist if duties, assignments or responsibilities associated with an intellectual property license or outside business arrangement have a negative impact on your ability to meet commitments associated with your FAU employment or exceed the amount of time available to you for these activities.
How does FAU manage conflicts of interest?
It is the responsibility of the employee to disclose and document any outside arrangements that constitute disclosable situations or interests as described in FAU conflict of interest policies. The best approach
is to fully disclose your situation to your supervisor and discuss the implications for your job responsibilities. Contact the Department
of Human Resources for a full explanation of FAU’s policies and procedures for managing conflicts of interest.
