Thank you for asking this important question. Integrity plays a vital role in accounting, and more specifically being an accounts payable clerk, because of the sensitive financial information involved. As an accounts payable clerk, I schedule payments for vendor bills. If I do not act with complete honesty, there is a chance that fraudulent activities will take place. Integrity helps ensure the company’s money goes where it should. Not only that, but I think is it important for honesty to permeate a work environment to give make all employees feel confident in the work being done.
