Standard III (D), Disclosure of Additional Compensation Arrangements

A

Under Standard III (D), members must disclose outside compensation/benefits to employers because outside arrangements may affect loyalties and objectivity and create potential conflicts of interest. Disclosure thus allows an employer to consider the outside arrangements when evaluating the actions and motivations of members. Moreover, the employer is entitled to have full knowledge of compensation/benefit arrangements to assess the true cost of the outside services members are providing.
