​¶​ ​STAFF ETHICS/CONFLICT OF INTEREST​¶​ ​¶​

​According to the Colorado Revised Statutes 24-18-105, the following ethical principles for​ ​school district employees “are intended as guides to conduct and do not constitute​ ​violations as such of the public trust of office or employment…”​¶​ ​¶​

​1.​ ​An employee "should not acquire or hold an interest in any business or​ ​undertaking which the employee has reason to believe may be directly and​ ​substantially affected to its economic benefit by official action to be taken by an agency​ ​over which the employee has substantive authority."​¶​ ​¶​

​2.​ ​An employee "should not, within six months following the termination of​ ​employment, obtain employment in which the employee will take direct advantage,​ ​unavailable to others, of matters with which the employee was directly involved during​ ​the employee's term of employment. These matters include rules, other than rules of​ ​general application, which the employee actively helped to formulate and applications,​ ​claims or contested cases in the consideration of which the employee was an active​ ​participant."​¶​ ​¶​

​3.​ ​An employee "should not perform an official act directly and substantially​ ​affecting a business or other undertaking to its economic detriment when the​ ​employee has a substantial financial interest in a competing firm or undertaking."​¶​ ​4.​ ​An employee is discouraged "from assisting or enabling members of [the​ ​employee's] immediate family in obtaining employment, a gift of substantial value, or an​ ​economic benefit tantamount to a gift of substantial value from a person whom [the​ ​employee] is in a position to reward with official action or has rewarded with official​ ​action in the past."​¶​ ​¶​ ​CROSS REF.:​​GBEB​, Staff Conduct (And Responsibilities)​¶​ ​¶​ ​End of File: GBCEA-E​¶​ ​¶​ ​¶​ ​¶​ ​¶​ ​¶​ ​¶​
