Standards of Employee Conduct 
Is/ 
Approved: Charles E. Samuels, Jr. 
Director, Federal Bureau of Prisons 
1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE 
To provide policies and procedures, referred to as the "Standards of Conduct," to complement 
those issued by the Office of Government Ethics on: 
■ Employee conduct and responsibility. 
■ Ethics in matters involving conflicts of interest. 
■ Post-employment restrictions. 
■ Procurement integrity issues. 
■ Attorney ethics. 
■ Outside employment. 
These standards apply to all employees of the Bureau of Prisons (Bureau), including employees 
of the Public Health Service and the National Institute of Corrections, and to any person detailed 
to any of those agencies under the Intergovernmental Personnel Act. 
Such employees are subject to certain standards and prohibitions — some statutory, some 
regulatory, and some a matter of good ethical principles that are essential to the efficiency of the 
organization. 
Contractors and volunteers working in Bureau facilities also are expected to conduct themselves 
by these standards, where applicable.

attempt to detail every incident that could violate the Standards of Conduct.
