Conflicts of Interest – Code of Conduct for Church Personnel

 Church personnel should avoid situations in which their church roles conflict or give the appearance of conflicting with their professional, personal, or financial interests.

8.3 Church personnel shall inform all parties when an actual or potential conflict of interest arises. Resolutions of the issues must protect the person receiving services.
