Gifts, Meals and Gratuities

Why are gifts in business and government so strictly regulated? The answer is both the appearance and the conflict. The DeKalb Ethics Code states that an employee or official cannot “By his or conduct give reasonable basis for the impression that any person can improperly influence him or her or unduly enjoy his or her favour …” Gifts almost automatically give the appearance of tainting a relationship – regardless of the sincerity of either party. Why? Because those on the outside will assume that a gift creates a conflict of interest. It doesn’t matter that the gift doesn’t influence your judgment as to what is right for the County – the gift gives the appearance that your judgement has been influenced.
