As a public institution, UAB employees who meet certain criteria are required by the state of Alabama to complete an annual Statement of Economic Interests Form. As required by law, the UAB Human Resources provides the Alabama Ethics Commission with a list of current and previous employees who met one or more of the following criteria during the 2024 calendar year:
- Individuals whose base rate of pay at any time during calendar year 2024 was $97,000 or more, even if employment during the year was for a period as short as one day
- Individuals whose job included purchasing or procurement authority
- Individuals who served as a supervisor
- Executive Assistants to leaders in the institution due to their access to highly confidential information
If completed online, the form must be completed and submitted by the state mandated deadline of April 30, 2025. Direct mail forms must be postmarked no later than April 30, 2025. Failure to file will result in a fine of up to $1,000, a misdemeanor charge for failure to file or both, imposed by the Alabama Ethic Commission for non-compliance.
More information, including a link to the online submission form and instructions for filing, is available at uab.edu/ethicsrequirement.
