Conflicts of 
Interest
Government employees are prohibited from having financial conflicts of interest with their official work. Generally, a Government employee may not work on a Government matter that will affect his financial interests, or the financial interests of:
- a spouse or minor child
- a general partner
- an organization he serves as an officer, director, trustee, general partner or employee, and
- a person with whom he is seeking or has an arrangement for future employment.
Example: A Government employee owns $50,000 worth of stock in your company. The employee may not work on a procurement matter affecting your company while the employee owns the stock.
