Conflict of Interest
On October 2, 2017, Plano ISD will begin the annual request for employees to disclose any potential conflicts of interest. ALL employees, except for bus drivers, substitutes and campus PASAR and FANS staff, will receive an email with a link to Laserfiche to make a selection. As with last year, you will need your Employee ID found in the employee service center in TEAMS to complete the form. You must answer all the questions and submit the form even if the answers are "No." We are asking that this form be completed by October 31, 2017. Disclosure requirements exist for gifts, lodging, transportation or entertainment to employees of an aggregate value of $100 or more. This includes donated food or apparel to a staff member by a single vendor in excess of $100 during a school year. Also required for disclosure is income or family relationships with vendors or potential vendors.
Principals and department managers will be asked to follow-up with all staff members who have not responded by the deadline, October 31.
Note: If you do not receive the conflict of interest email on October 2, please check your Clutter or Junk E-Mail folder. It will be from: workflow@pisd.edu
If any questions exist, please contact ConflictofInterest@pisd.edu.
Sincerely,
Sara Bonser
Interim Deputy Superintendent
