1.  조사배경

    □  2023년  4월  14일  연구원  e-신문고에  직원  6명이  공동으로  「①구매계약이 

체결된  물품이  정상적으로  납품되지  않았음에도  피제보자가  검수완료 

처리하여  대금  지급(3,366만원),  ②피제보자가  부서원  및  과제참여자들

등이  기술검수  “합격”으로  완료  처리하여  대금이  지급되도록  한  행위

              *  피제보자-계약(납품)업체  관계자  간  이루어진  금전거래  행위도  고려

빌리거나  빌려주었음에도  당사자  모두  연구원에  신고하지  않은  행위

3.  조사과정

4월  19일~2023년  4월  21일),  연구원  연구윤리위원회  심의1),  조사가 

필요한  7명에  대한  2차  문답(2023년  5월  22일~2023년  5월  31일)  및 

연구원  연구윤리위원회  재심의2)  등을  통해  조사를  완료하였다.
