Fraud and Ethics Training
From October 10 to October 19, all employees
(full-time and part-time) at all UH System
components are being enrolled in Fraud
Awareness and Prevention training and Code
of Ethics training, which are two separate
online classes.
In July 2004, Governor Rick Perry issued
Executive Order RP36
related to preventing, detecting, and
eliminating fraud, waste, and abuse. One of
the ways we address fraud is through
training. Fraud Awareness and Prevention
training covers how to recognize fraud,
prevent it, and report it (anonymously, if
desired).
In addition,
House Bill 590,
which became effective September 1, 2007,
requires all state agencies and institutions
to distribute a copy of its ethics policy to
existing employees by January 1, 2008 and to
new employees by their third day of
employment. Code of Ethics training covers
standards of conduct for UH System
employees, as outlined in
SAM 02.A.29,
Ethical Conduct of Employees.
All employees will receive two emails (one
for Fraud Awareness training and one for
Ethics training) similar to the one below
between now and next week.
Hello:
