It is of the utmost importance to the integrity of our program that each evaluation GBW conducts is impartial and free of bias. Our clients demand this of GBW, and all of its shoppers. To eliminate the potential for bias, we ask the following screening questions:

1. Do you know anyone who has worked within the relevant industry?
2. Have you or any of your family worked within the relevant industry?

It is a condition of accepting any assignment that you answer ‘No’ to each of the above questions. Our XE terms and conditions, and WebSelect screens are currently being updated to reinforce this issue.

Most companies, including our clients, have specific clauses written into their contracts that prohibit employees from conducting any activities that would result in a conflict of interest. Conducting an evaluation on an employer clearly represents a conflict of interest. This activity could lead to dismissal from your employer. Please make sure you do not accept assignments that could result in this action.

Recent screening and monitoring processes have identified XEs that have breached this conflict of interest. These XEs have been deleted from our database. GBW will continue to work closely with our clients to ensure the ongoing integrity of our data.

Please let us know if you are aware of having any potential conflicts of interest. Your personal file will be updated and, in your interests, you will be blocked from completing any evaluations for the relevant client.
