Conflict of Interest

The State Ethics Commission requires that all municipalities distribute the Summary of the Conflict of Interest Law for Municipal Employees each year to comply with the conflict of interest law mandatory education and training requirements. As a result, below please find a PDF of the latest version of the "Conflict of Interest Law Summary for Municipal Employees". The last page of the summary has an acknowledgment form that should be signed and returned to the Town Clerk's Office by all Town of Seekonk employees, committee members, and board members.

In addition, public employees (inclusive of town employees, committee members, and board members) are required to complete the online Conflict of Interest Law (Municipal) training every two years.
