Welcome to ethics central!

Welcome to my little ethics-centric corner of the web! I will be compiling ethics advice provided by Board Staff. We will start off with the informal guidance questions of note that have become part of our monthly General Counsel's Report. The content and organization of this page will evolve as we go, so stay tuned and subscribe if you want email updates! These advice tidbits are for reference only. They are not intended as legally protective guidance or binding interpretation of laws within the Board's jurisdiction. You can request individualized informal advice by contacting BOEGCStaff@phila.gov or clicking the Ask for Advice button on the Board's website. Keep asking those great ethics questions, and I'll keep posting. Because, as they say, Ethel Knows Ethics!! XOXO, Ethel

Speaking on panel that includes candidate for City office

May a City employee serve on a panel to speak on matters related to their City job if an elected official who is a current candidate for public office is also on the panel? Yes, so long as (a) the panel relates to the employee’s official duties, (b) the employee appears in their official capacity, (c) the elected official does not discuss their campaign, and (d) the event is not hosted or organized by a political campaign, political party, or partisan political group. If, during the event, the elected official engages in any campaign activity, the City employee would need to remove themselves. These advice tidbits are for reference only. They are not intended as legally protective guidance or binding interpretation of laws within the Board's jurisdiction. You can request individualized informal advice by contacting BOEGCStaff@phila.gov or clicking the Ask for Advice button on the Board's website.
